MP govt to bring law to regulate online gaming
By MYBRANDBOOK
Madhya Pradesh Minister Narottam Mishra has said that the state government will bring in an act to regulate gaming applications on mobile phones.
This comes after a tragic incident happened where an 11-year-old boy Suryansh Ojha allegedly committed suicide while playing Free Fire game with his cousin in a room on the terrace of their house in Bhopal's Shankracharya Nagar.
When his cousin stepped out of the room, Suryansh allegedly hanged himself with a rope used for setting up a punching bag. It appears that he took this extreme step because of too much involvement in online games. Suryansh had even stolen money from his home to pay for a gaming application and his parents scolded him for that.
Mishra said, “The Free Fire game that caused the tragic incident is a very serious issue. We will bring an act in Madhya Pradesh to regulate online gaming. The draft is almost ready for it. We will soon give it a concrete shape.”
Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police Ankit Jaiswal said, “The boy was hyperactive and addicted to online gaming. The cause behind the extreme step is being ascertained. However, it looks like it just happened while playing the online game or practicing some acts shown in it.”
