Govt blocks 300 illegal betting & gambling sites

NEW DELHI: Govt has intensified action against online gambling and betting platforms, blocking around 300 websites and applications in the latest round. The move is part of the enforcement drive that has gathered pace after the passage of the Online Gaming Act last year, which laid down a clearer framework to curb unlawful real-money gaming and betting activities.They said the blocked platforms include online sports betting websites, offshore casinos offering games such as slots and roulette, betting exchanges operating as peer-to-peer marketplaces, satta and matka networks, and real-money card and casino gaming apps. Many of these platforms were found to be operating without authorisation and targeting Indian users through mirror sites and mobile applications.
