The government on Friday ordered removal of three Chinese apps — BAT-BMS, Lossigy, Epoch-i-ion —  that were being misused to remotely disable battery-operated vehicles in the country, sources said on Friday. The action from the government came after some videos surfaced showing that some e-rickshaws were being rendered inoperable through a remote shutdown feature linked to the Chinese smartphone application BAT-BMS. These videos sparked widespread concerns over the cybersecurity risks posed by such internet-connected vehicle management systems.  Many e-rickshaw drivers operating across Delhi’s busy Metro corridors say they are living in fear after a smartphone application allegedly began shutting down their vehicles in the middle of the road, leaving them stranded amid speeding traffic and exposing passengers to accidents.
