The title is correct but linked article is incorrect. Here is the link to the correct article http://egovstandards.gov.in/comments-on-mobile-security-guidelines http://egovstandards.gov.in/comments-on-mobile-security-guid... The title is right according to the proposed rules. Indian government doesn't want their people to run programs they would want to on their own device bought with their own money, without getting it signed by Google/Apple. Either the government is fooled by the word "sideloading" which truly means "freedom to run any code" but madeup in such a way that it means bypassing security of Android and iOS or the government doesn't like the fact that they cannot ban apps directly downloaded from web. Indian government's rules are always "one step forward, ten steps backward"!
