Advocate Krishnakant has filed a complaint with the Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA) against betting apps. He has urged the authority to take strict action against celebrities who promote these apps.
In his complaint, Krishnakant requested a ban that would stop celebrities from endorsing betting apps for three years. He also suggested imposing fines between ₹10 lakh and ₹50 lakh on those who have already promoted these apps.
The issue of betting apps and their advertisements has become a growing concern. Many people believe stricter rules are needed to reduce their influence, especially on young and vulnerable audiences. The advocate’s complaint emphasizes the responsibility of public figures who endorse such platforms.
The CCPA has not yet responded to the complaint. However, the demand for action against the promotion of betting apps is gaining more support.
