After India, Nepal is heading to the ban of PUBG across the country. Recently, Nepal authorities have ordered Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and mobile operators to block streaming of PUBG. From today onward, all of the ISPs and mobile operators have a duty to discontinue support for PUBG servers. Ever since the craze for playing PUBG was caught up, many authorities in the world have expressed concern over the negative effects of intensive gaming habits of the players.

The ban was deployed after an investigation of Nepal’s federal agency and acted by NTA, Nepal Telecommunications Authority. Sandip Adhikari, an NTA spokesperson, cited that PUBG is absolutely addictive to children and teenagers.

According to Metropolitan Crime Division, schools and parents had complained about the game. When they consulted with physiatrists and experts, it finally leads to the end of PUBG in Nepal.
