“Rummy, Three cards, pokers, etc are dangerous. These are easily accessible for youths. They are addicted to these games. Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Sikkim, Assam, Orissa, Nagaland have banned online gambling,” Amonkar said.
He said that unemployed youths and college going students fall prey to these games. “One can start playing these games at Rs 5 to range of Rs 10,000. Even one can extend limit above Rs 40,000 per day. It is a complete scam. Government is not monitoring it.” Amonkar said.
“One of my close friends’ son lost rupees five lakhs in just three months. It is very dangerous,” he added.
