Few state governments banned dream11 and similar apps and others have some restrictions so it differs from one state to another and the regulations related to internet activities are not strong in our country that is why these apps are still making money.

The government can keep banning them and more such avenues to circumvent the official ban on gambling will come up and be made popular among the youth of India. If you feel they are bad, advice those who are addicted to it to quit using them, help them but dont force them, because it is an addiction after all.

Such cat and mouse games between the government and different app makers always exist, you just have to watch them have fun. Grin

I see this thing differently, most of the users of these fantasy sports are youngsters who may not be aware of what it actually it is so it is important for the company to brand them in the right way but they are promoting themselves as some kind of skill game which makes crores of people to bet on these apps every day, especially at IPL and World cup matches and all of them were bring into the concept of fantasy sport by deceiving.

Advice is to create awareness and also regulate the fantasy sports under gambling which will make them more regulated and help the minors to stay away from gambling because mostly these people come from the middle class.

You are right. Even I don't like the way these apps promote their platforms. They show as if people can earn easy money using their platform.
But the hidden truth is that people actually get attracted towards gambling using such platforms.
The major problem is that these ads are also displayed on TVs where even the kids watch it and get attracted to it.
Government should ban such ads to be displayed on TVs.
