Chinese companies have been resented by Indians ever since the COVID-19 outbreak and they have been hated globally as well as they feel like China was the entire reason COVID-19 spread in the first place. The border clashes in Ladakh with China and India have led to a large amount of hate spewing for Chinese companies. India responded to these sentiments by banning more than 160 applications that were made in China including TikTok from operating in India. One of the few exemptions was Chinese tech giant Xiaomi.

Xiaomi, however got into hot water of their own with the Indian government as people noted that the app for weather in Xiaomi phones were not displaying weather for locations in Arunachal Pradesh. After a lot of people using the internet in India complained about this, Xiaomi India clarified that the weather app used a lot of third party sources in order to siphon off its data and this was just due to a technical error which has been fixed now. Twitter in India is still facing backlash for their location change though.
