In April, WhatsApp made a decisive move by banning approximately 7.4 million Indian accounts.
This strict action was taken to address the misuse of the platform for spreading harmful content and engaging in unethical activities.
By removing these accounts, WhatsApp aims to create a safer space for its users, where they can communicate freely without fear of encountering harmful or misleading information.
