Representative image NEW DELHI: Government has ordered Google and Apple to remove seven Chinese battery management apps, including BAT-BMS, Lossigy and Epoch-i-ion, from their app stores after reports surfaced online that these were being misused to remotely disable battery-operated vehicles, including e-rickshaws.The order – against the backdrop of bans and takedowns since the Galwan confrontation in 2020 – marks the first to address issues of data security, sovereignty and remote interference linked to vehicle devices.Govt sources said the ministry of electronics and IT (MeitY) has warned that any other app found being used to interfere with or remotely shut down battery-operated vehicles will also be blocked.The action followed videos showing e-rickshaws being stopped through Bluetooth-enabled battery management systems. In clips, users were seen scanning batteries through apps and switching off battery discharge, leaving drivers stranded and costing them hours of work.MeitY secretary S Krishnan said, “There are a couple of apps which came to our notice yesterday (Thursday) and they have been taken down from the app stores.”Officials said apps like BAT-BMS are designed to monitor battery parameters su-ch as voltage and charge status.

J&K education minister Sakina Itoo SRINAGAR: A viral video of a 12-year-old child criticising J&K education minister Sakina Itoo took another turn Friday with Kashmir’s chief cleric Mirwaiz Umar Farooq terming the remarks “impolite” and the govt-run Child Welfare Committee (CWC) summoning the news portal that first uploaded the clip.CWC also ordered cops to take steps to get the clip removed and register an FIR. In the video, the child denounces Itoo for not announcing summer vacations in the Valley despite temperatures rising above 35 degrees Celsius. He is heard saying he “feels the minister may not have children who attend school and she herself might be sitting in an AC room”.Summer vacations in schools in the Valley are usually announced by authorities for around two weeks in July-Aug, with the exact dates depending on the weather.The video has generated heated social media debate. Many have defended the child’s views as free expression, praised his arguments and asked other children to emulate him, while others have criticised him for what they describe as a “troubling lapse in basic upbringing and social values”.Mirwaiz Farooq expressed unease. “Society must ask whether minor children should be exposed to social media in such a manner and used for public reactions without understanding the consequences,” Mirwaiz told a gathering in Jamia Mosque after Friday prayers.CWC’s notice said the child was “interviewed and recorded by representatives of the news portal without obtaining the informed consent of the parent/legal guardian and without the knowledge or permission of the concerned school authorities”.CWC has directed the journalists to appear before it even as the portal submitted a written statement. Separately, CWC issued a fresh advisory prohibiting interviewing, filming and dissemination of videos involving children in ways that may compromise their privacy, dignity, safety or overall well-being.“I took suo motu cognisance after I saw the viral video. At the time, I did not know the identity of the child, his parents or the school. The video had already gone viral,” CWC chairperson Khair-ul-Nisa said.Khair-ul-Nisa feared trouble for the child. “He may not even be able to return to school due to the attention the video has received. The journalists should have exercised greater discretion before uploading the video.” According to the CWC chief, she identified the child’s school from his uniform and directed its principal to appear Saturday for verification of facts.Get the latest India news and live updates.
