Indian Army soldiers will no longer be able to keep social media apps like Facebook, Instagram on their phones. The army has ordered the soldiers to delete these apps from their phones.
Not only Facebook, Instagram, there are also 89 more apps which Army soldiers will not keep in their phones.
According to the order, everyone has to complete it by 15 July. This decision has been taken citing the leaking of sensitive information of the army.
The Army has said that strict action will be taken against those who get these 89 apps in addition to Facebook, Instagram in their mobiles.
According to the media report, an army official has said that this step has been taken because online surveillance by China and Pakistan has increased on military officers and soldiers through these apps.
