Centre proposes self-regulation for online gaming players
The online gaming companies will have to comply to IT rules and go for mandatory verification
The Central Government has proposed self-regulation and mandatory player verification for online gaming companies to exercise due diligence.
The Ministry of Electronics and IT will now be the nodal ministry for matters related to online gaming with monetary risks, media reports have said.
Online gaming companies will now be covered under the IT rules issued two years back for social media platforms.
The gaming sector has been seeking more clarity from the government following crackdowns on companies.
