Electronics and IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw has said that the Government has blocked one thousand 410 gaming sites under the IT intermediary rules after the reports of the Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C).
Replying to supplementaries in the Lok Sabha today, Mr Vaishnaw said betting and gambling are part of the State list and the State government has the power to make a legislative framework for it. He said the Centre has taken many steps in this regard. The Minister said that I4C provides a framework for law enforcement agencies to deal with online gaming-related issues. He said action is also taken under Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita Section 112.
