On Monday, Pankaj Chaudhary, the Minister of State for Finance, disclosed that 581 applications\u2014174 of which were related to betting and gambling\u2014had been denied by the government.<\/p>\n<p>Popular websites including Parimatch, Fairplay, 1XBET, Lotus365, Dafabet, and Betwaysatta were among the prohibited platforms. The Enforcement Directorate (ED) is now conducting an inquiry into these applications after it was discovered that they were functioning against Indian laws.<\/p>\n<h2>Government\u2019s Crackdown on Illicit Operations<\/h2>\n<p>The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) took this step in accordance with section 69A of the IT Act, 2000, Chaudhary informed the Lok Sabha. PUBG and Garena Free Fire, two of the most well-known gaming apps, were among the other 87 loan lending apps that were prohibited.<\/p>\n<p>This action comes after a slew of measures taken against unlicensed gaming applications and betting. After the ED looked into an illicit betting app syndicate, the authorities banned 22 of these applications last month. One of the ED\u2019s initiatives in Chhattisgarh was to raid Mahadev Book.<\/p>\n<p>The authorities had blacklisted 138 websites that offered unlawful gambling and betting earlier in February. Still, a few of these websites were up and running. In response, the government modified the IGST Act and notified it in July, requiring offshore gambling enterprises to register with the Indian government.<\/p>\n<div class=\"main-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-items box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"box-100 space-org-3-item relative border-tb mt-1 \">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-logo-title-box box-100 text-left relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-box box-25 relative img-radius\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/7bit.partners\/p617d974b\" title=\"Visit Site\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><br \/>\n\t\t<amp-img alt=\"7Bit Casino\" src=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/7BitCasino.png\" width=\"50\" height=\"50\" layout=\"fixed\"><br \/>\n\t\t<\/amp-img><br \/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-title box-25 relative py-10\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/7bit.partners\/p617d974b\" title=\"7Bit Casino\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">7Bit Casino<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n\t\t<strong>177% up to 5BTC + 77 <strong>\u00a0Free Spins<\/strong>!<\/strong><br \/>\n\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"pt-1\">New players only.
