Interpol and CERT-In will be enlisted by the center to implement the new gaming prohibition.

The government declared that it would not think twice about using international procedures, such as calling in Interpol, to subjugate offshore money-gaming platform providers and stop their operations.With measures that go beyond India's boundaries, the Center has made it clear that adherence to the recently passed Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Act, 2025 will be vigorously enforced. The government declared that it would not think twice about using international procedures, such as calling in Interpol, to subjugate offshore money-gaming platform operators and shut down their operations.On the fringes of an event, S. Krishnan, Secretary, Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), told businessline, "There is a process of Interpol (International Criminal Police Organization), and there is a process in which they can be brought to jurisdiction."Krishnan emphasized that India's technological and cyber-security infrastructure would also be necessary for enforcement. Apps that continue to offer illegal money-gaming services in India will have to be blocked or disabled by the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In), which is part of MeitY. "CERT-In can come and play its role to shut down those apps under the IT Act, just like it can with any other technical issue," he stated. The government also rejected the argument that the restriction would be rendered useless by virtual private network (VPN) circumvention. "We'll figure out a way (to control them) without the VPN problem either. We must since it's a technological issue," Krishnan continued.

The compliance-heavy approach follows what the Centre described as the continuous failure of self-regulation in the gambling industry. The government claims that industry participants acknowledged the inadequacies and lack of legitimacy of self-regulatory organizations. As a result, it was decided to outlaw all real-money games while allowing for social gaming and e-sports. The Act, which was approved by both Houses of Parliament and signed into law by the President on Friday, forbids all types of gaming that involves money while simultaneously encouraging e-sports and online social activities.
