A source informed Reuters that the government is not ready to lift the ban not because it is a Chinese app but because the game is violent. As per the report, the source said, “The violent nature of the game has been the cause of many complaints from all quarters. That does not change with the change in ownership rights.” The report further reveals that PUBG Corporation is now looking into India’s concerns and “is ready to work on anything that needed improvement”.
