The year 2020 has been a nightmare for the entire world! The pandemic situation created by the COVID-19 virus has infected millions of people and thousands have been reported to have succumbed to it. A large number of people have been unemployed for months while several have lost their jobs permanently.

How to Play PUBG after Ban in 2020 (Here's a way)

While all this going on, there have been reports of escalating tensions between India and China. Last month, the Indian government had banned a number of Chinese mobile apps due to several reasons including unauthorized user data sharing, security issue to the state, etc. TikTok was one of the most famous applications which were banned at that time. PUBG somehow managed to escape and was still functional.

However, in a fresh move, the Indian government has banned another 118 Chinese mobile apps (under section 69A of the IT Act) on 2nd September 2020, which includes PUBG Mobile and PUBG Mobile Lite. This decision came after several complaints and reports accusing them of data theft and identifying them as a threat to state security and public order.

PUBG has thousands of active players from all over India and the word is out that all the Indian PUBG players have to give up this game as it has been identified as a threat to national security. However, that is not entirely the case. There is a twist to the ban of PUBG Mobile and PUBG Mobile Lite.
