The winners of the “AatmaNirbhar Bharat App Innovation Challenge” have been finally announced. Social app Chingari, which rose to fame in the past couple of months won the title in the ‘Social’ category. All the winners will get certificates and prize money as well. It is worth adding that there was a tie in the second position between Koo and YouQuote apps. There were other apps in the social category as well including Mitron, Sharechat and Roposo but none of them were able to make it to the final three. These apps gained traction following the ban on TikTok in India.

“Prime Minister Narendra Modi gave us the clarion call of AtmaNirbhar Bharat and the Chingari team works on this very line. It is a proud moment for us. We have been voted as the best app in the social media category precisely because the features we provide are tailored for the needs of the young Bharat. We will continue to serve the interests of the Indian consumers through our platform,” said Sumit Ghosh, Co-founder and CEO of Chingari App.
