THE ordinance banning online gambling lapsed on Sunday, and all eyes are on Governor RN Ravi since the Bill on the matter is still pending with him. Asked about the government's next move, a top officer said: "We await the approval of the governor for the Bill." The ordinance was not notified by the Tamil Nadu government after the governor gave his assent last month for the ordinance.
Meanwhile, on October 19, the Assembly passed the Tamil Nadu Prohibition of Online Gaming and Regulation of Online Games Bill, 2022, to ban online gambling. This and 19 other Bills await the governor's assent.
Speaking to reporters on Monday, Law Minister S Reghupathy confirmed that the ordinance expired on Sunday.
