タミル・ナードゥ州のオンラインゲーム機関は、RMG業界向けに新しい規制を導入しました

The Tamil Nadu Online Gaming Authority (TNOGA) has introduced new regulations for the real-money gaming (RMG) industry, reinforcing measures to curb addiction and ensure responsible gaming. The new regulations strictly prohibit minors from accessing online real-money gaming platforms and mandate Know Your Customer (KYC) verification even for account creation. Additionally, platform logins must be authenticated through Aadhaar verification, followed by a one-time password (OTP) sent to the registered mobile number.

As the apex body of online gaming in India, Mr. Roland Landers, CEO of All India Gaming Federation stated, “The Tamil Nadu Online Gaming Authority (TNOGA) had extensively engaged with stakeholders before drafting the rules, ensuring an inclusive and transparent approach. We believe substantial progress has been made toward player protection, fostering innovation, and furthering the growth of India’s online gaming industry. It is commendable that many provisions mirror the MeitY rules or borrow language from them, creating a degree of regulatory consistency.”

He further added, “However, the biggest threat to players, the economy, and national security remains offshore illegal gambling apps, which operate outside Indian regulations and put users at risk. Addressing this menace requires a collaborative effort between the industry and authorities to develop effective solutions. While some aspects of the new rules may require further deliberation by the industry to assess their operational impact, we look forward to continued engagement to create a balanced and progressive regulatory framework.”

In conclusion, the Tamil Nadu Online Gaming Authority’s (TNOGA) new regulations mark a significant step towards responsible gaming within the real-money gaming (RMG) industry. By implementing measures like mandatory AADHAAR verification, playtime limits, and regular cautionary messages, TNOGA aims to protect vulnerable individuals, particularly minors, from the potential harms of excessive gaming. These rules demonstrate a commitment to fostering a safer gaming environment and promoting responsible gaming practices within the state.
