Is BGMI Banned in India?

The reason behind these errors could be simply due to a bug or because BGMI developer Krafton, has disconnected the servers in India after the removal from the plays stores, the report suggested. In case servers are being turned off, there will be no way for the battle royale players to play BGMI!

Battlegrounds Mobile India was removed from the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store on July 28, reportedly under Section 69A of the Indian IT law. It is the same law under which the Indian Government had banned a bunch of Chinese apps including PUBG: Mobile a couple of years ago. However, final confirmation from Krafton or the government is yet to make the reason clear.
