Few days back, We became aware of a rumor saying "Android may get banned in India by government".
If i'm not wrong, Telecom Minister Kapil Sibal just wanted to ban the apps from Playstore that serves adult-content.
"I want you people to suggest how can we close it. If we want to close it, you will attack us. I want all the media to come together and tell the minister how to deal with it so that if I do something about it, you don't attack me," DNA India quoted Sibal as saying.
In a response to the Telecom Minister's statement, the Google spokesperson said "Google Play developer programme policy does not allow content that contains nudity, graphic sex acts, or sexually explicit material. Google has a zero-tolerance policy against child pornography"
It added that if Google becomes aware of such kind of adult content with child pornography , they will report it to the authorities and remove the account which distributes the app.
It is just about android app serving adult content, they are not going to ban the Android OS itself. As a matter of fact, the Akash Tablets are also using Android OS.
