Recently, relations between India and China have deteriorated considerably. It is having an impact on various socio-economic and political developments in the two countries. But at the same time, some experts are reminding us of the fierce competition in the world market, which is also destabilizing our simple everyday life.
In addition to the Chinese app ban, our centrally elected
government has announced plans to build a 'self-reliant India'. Some
delegates also spoke of using more Indian products in all walks of life instead
of using Chinese products. Meanwhile, a controversy erupted last Saturday
over the behaviour of Chinese smartphone maker Xiaomi. In the update of
Xiaomi Weather app, Arunachal Pradesh was unknowingly disappeared from
India! Netizens have been protesting against Xiaomi on social media in
protest of the incident. Many of them on Twitter want to know the reason
for this unjust behaviour of Xiaomi.
In the face of this collective protest, Xiaomi India hastily
issued a statement on the same day stating that their mistake was completely
unintentional. They have already solved this problem. Respecting the
sentiments of all Indian citizens towards the country, they have apologized for
this unintentional mistake.
A spokesman for Xiaomi said in a statement to IANS: "In
fact, our Weather app relies on multiple third-party sources for
information. That's why we're sorry for the weather update providing
inaccurate information about multiple locations. "
Authorities in Xiaomi India have made it clear that multiple
locations in Arunachal Pradesh, including Itanagar, Tawang and Pasighat, could
not be found in their app just because of a mechanical glitch. They are
committed to delivering the best possible service to all Indian citizens by
correcting these shortcomings in the future, the statement said.
Even after this statement, many netizens, however, tweeted
Xiaomi, "Then be careful before any other part of India is blown away by
the application, otherwise it cannot be said that your smartphone may be
vanishing in the Indian market overnight!"
