Indian NGO Prahar has sought to ban the Chinese game Undawn: Here’s why | Digit

0

An Indian NGO named Prahar has urged the Indian government to ban the Chinese giant Tencent’s open-world survival RPG called Undawn. If Indian authorities agree to Prahar’s allegations, then Undawn could be a new addition to the long list of banned Chinese apps in India. But, let’s not rush to any conclusion and see for ourselves why Prahar thinks Undawn must be banned.

Prahar’s reasons for urging Undawn’s ban

1. Undawn was launched on June 15, 2023, which happens to be the same day when the India-China border clash happened at the Galwan valley. About 20 Indian soldiers were reportedly killed in this skirmish.

Prahar finds it very disturbing that Tencent chose June 15 as the date for the release of Undawn.

2. The issues don’t end there. Prahar is also concerned about the military uniforms and weapons (like AK47, G36, M416, and MPX. in the game that were apparently worn/used by Chinese soldiers at the time of the attack.

Abhay Mishra, Prahar National Convenor and President has said the game is trying to exert its “soft influence” on the young minds who play this game. 

Not only that he thinks this is an insult to the bravehearts who lost their lives and the sentiments of Indians.

Besides, the aforementioned weapons, the in-game armoury also consists of a variety of bombs, grenades, and melee weapons. You use these weapons as you go out on a survival mission in a world filled with zombies. You can play player vs player and player vs environment.
