NLU Prepping Up Gaming Regulation Recommendations, To Submit To MeitY Post Elections

The National Law University (NLU) Delhi, in consultation with the industry body E-Gaming Federation (EGF), is working with stakeholders to determine the future of gaming regulations in India.

Now, NLU is expected to submit its recommendations to MeitY after the general elections.
