The Ban and Upliftment
Everything was going well for the Kannadigas regarding rummy online, until one fine day – 21 September 2021, the state government imposed a complete ban on gambling in the state, which also included games of skills like rummy. It came into effect on 5th October. But many knew, including rummy was completely wrong, because it was a game of mere ‘skill’, rummy cash game just didn’t fit in the category of gambling.
Hence, it was challenged by many in the court, including the AIGF (All India Gambling Federation). Finally, after many months of deliberation & debates, the state high court overturned the ban on rummy in Karnataka 14th of February, 2022. This paved the way for Khel Play Rummy and all other rummy platforms to restart their services again. Life came full circle. Rummy game & tournaments were restarted again.
