I wonder when governments will learn that you cannot "Ban" a P2P technology like bitcoin. They have been trying to ban torrents for the past decade look how that has turned out.....

It is a pain in the ass to use internet in India. They have banned all the torrent sites, porn sites and even the online casino sites. The only group that has benefited from this is the VPN providers. Millions of Indians are now using VPNs and the providers are making a killing (I just use the free "Secure Connection VPN" which comes with the Kaspersky Anti Virus whenever I visit India).

And you can't say that the government action has been without any success so far. A lot of people sold their cryptocurrency holdings fearing government action. And all of the local exchanges have closed down.
