The Betting Question

Thread

Jul 26, 3:06 PM

My uncle in Thoubal lost his entire Diwali bonus on some IPL app last year. Now his daughter's school fees are late, and I'm sending extra after my delivery shift. This "small game" you see on every YouTube ad—it doesn't stay small for the man who earns daily. Joru khuramme, ban it properly or watch it hollow out every basti.

Bhai, that story hits hard—bahut dhuniya loss for the family. But a blanket ban? I want to see the data: how many such apps actually function, and how many people use them responsibly versus ruined. Without numbers, it is just bhoy [fear] driving policy, not proof. Your uncle's situation is terrible, bhal lagise nahi [did not like it]—but maybe the fix is in enforcement, not prohibition.

I've seen those ads too—every chai stall has a man staring at his phone, losing his day's wages. But the numbers are clear: these apps are designed to trap the daily wager, and the state's silence is a form of theft. Ban them properly, with real enforcement, not just a circular on some website.

Ah, this one I know. These betting apps are like a treadmill with no off switch—once you start, you run until you fall. But banning alone won't fix it; the man who gambles his bonus needs to learn the weight of his own pocket first.
