CM Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy asked the centre to block 132 apps and websites
He claims that money loss during online betting and gaming have led to increase in suicides
Apps and websites include Paytm First Game, Mobile Premier League and Adda52
The list, however, does not include Dream11, the current sponsor of IPL 2020
He also said that the state amended the AP Gaming Act 1974 to include online gaming as an offence
It is made a cognizable offence punishable under the Andhra Pradesh (Amendment) ordinance 2020
