In Rajkot, 10 people have been Arrested by their police for playing PUBG PlayerUnknown Battleground. Out of these ten people, six are an undergraduate student. Police Commissioner Manoj Agarwal said in this case that on March 6, the notice was issued to be banned the person in PUBG City But except this case, there are even 122 cases have to come up so far.

Player Unknown's Battlegrounds is an online multiplayer battle royale game developed and published by PUBG Corporation, a subsidiary of South Korean video game company Bluehole. The game is based on previous modes that were created by Brendan "PlayerUnknown" Greene for other games, inspired by the 2000 Japanese film Battle Royale, and expanded into a standalone game under Greene's creative direction.

 In the game, up to one hundred players parachute onto an island and scavenge for weapons and equipment to kill others while avoiding getting killed them. The available safe area of the game's map decreases in size over time, directing surviving players into tighter areas to force encounters. The last player or team standing wins the round.

Rajkot Special Operation Inspector Rohit Rawal told on Wednesday that the police have arrested three people near the police headquarters. We filed a case against them under section 188 of IPC and seized by the police for more investigation.

This game seems to be so addictive said by the inspector. In this way people got so engrossed in the game and that can harm them as per the cases recorded across the country.
