Why is WhatsApp banning some accounts?
Many people were using the WhatsApp app in a wrong way as they can use the message app itself any way they want. In order not to do so, WhatsApp has implemented various regulations. A few months ago, the company announced that WhatsApp accounts would be suspended if they violated the rules. Hence, thousands to lakhs of Indian WhatsApp accounts are banned every month based on complaints from other users.
