Online Rummy Industry in Full Support of Regulating Online Gaming

In India, the popularity of rummy has been increasing for the last few years. During the coronavirus lockdown, the online rummy industry has shown significant growth.
In such a time, the Madurai bench of the Madras high court released a recent statement made by the Additional Advocate General (AAG) Mr. M. Sricharan Rangarajan informing that the Tamil Nadu State Government was actively considering regulating the online skill gaming sector.
This news was welcomed by The Online Rummy Federation (TORF), stating that this was a huge step towards creating a better and safer platform for players and operators.
Over the last two years, TORF members have taken extraordinary and voluntary steps to self-regulate and give players the tools to play responsibly.
TORF strongly feels that the Government should regulate this sector to ensure only legitimate, legal operators who follow strict protocols are allowed to operate and a clear distinction drawn from those who try and operate above the law. Tens of thousands of players from Tamil Nadu enjoy playing online rummy safely and responsibly. Effective regulation will let the vast majority of the players who play responsibly continue to enjoy the game, protect the vulnerable players, and lead to substantial additional revenues for the government.
TORF is committed to provide its full support to the government in creating a safe and responsible gaming industry. They have already made an official representation to the Honourable Chief Minister to kindly consider regulating the sector as a win-win solution.
