Supreme Court rejects lady doctor’s claim that access to WhatsApp is fundamental right; suggests can use Zoho’s Arattai app – The Times of India

The Supreme Court of India ruled that access to private digital platforms like WhatsApp is not a constitutionally guaranteed right. Users must adhere to the terms of service of these private entities, and the court dismissed arguments claiming violation of free speech, suggesting such issues should be addressed through regulatory or civil channels. Dr. Raman Kundra sought restoration of her WhatsApp account for professional and personal use but was advised to consider alternatives like the Arattai app, which has gained significant traction in India. Launched in 2021, Arattai briefly surpassed competitors in app store rankings and is positioned as a "spyware-free, made-in-India messenger," endorsed by government officials. It offers features such as one-to-one and group chats, audio and video calls with end-to-end encryption, multi-device support, and broadcasting capabilities.

Arattai reaches No 1 in app stores: Can the ‘Made in India’ messaging app challenge WhatsApp? Name and features explained

India's messaging app Arattai, launched in 2021 by Zoho, has recently topped app store rankings, surpassing established competitors. The app promotes itself as "spyware-free" and "made-in-India," appealing to users concerned about data privacy. It received a boost in popularity following an endorsement from India's Union Education Minister, Dharmendra Pradhan. Arattai offers features such as one-to-one and group chats, voice notes, media sharing, voice and video calls, stories, and channel broadcasting. It emphasizes user privacy and does not monetize personal data, although chat encryption is still in development. As the app grows rapidly, it faces challenges like delayed OTPs and slower contact synchronization due to increased server load. Maintaining its position against WhatsApp, which has over 500 million users in India, will require Arattai to convert downloads into regular use and address feature gaps. Zoho is working to expand server capacity and enhance user security.
