As of now, neither Google nor Mitron has revealed details about the removal of the application from the Play store. However, chances are strong that the app has been taken down due to the security issues that indianexpress.com and other media houses reported earlier this week.

Before officially launching the app in India Agarwal and his team ‘t even customise the coding or change the privacy Policy.
