The All India Gaming Federation (AIGF) has urged the government to create a unified Self-Regulatory Organisation (SRO) for the online gaming industry. This initiative aims to foster consistent regulation across the nation for the sector.
Establishing a single SRO would standardize rules and guidelines for online gaming across all states. This could lead to a more predictable and stable operational environment for businesses in the industry.
A unified approach to regulation could address complexities arising from differing state-level interpretations or fragmented regulatory efforts within the online gaming space.
The AIGF's proposal directly concerns the regulatory landscape for online gaming in India. A consistent regulatory framework is crucial for the development and stability of the skill-gaming sector within the country.
