AIGF welcomes India’s move to develop online gambling regulation

India’s move to set up an inter-ministerial panel to study regulations for skill-based online gambling has been welcomed as a “step in the right direction” for the burgeoning industry.

The seven-member panel includes secretaries of home affairs, revenue, industries and internal trade, electronics and IT, information and broadcasting, sports and think tank Niti Aayog. It will look into various aspects to promote online gaming and frame regulatory mechanisms for the segment, protection of gamers and ease of doing business.

The establishment of the panel was first reported by Indian media, citing an unnamed source.
