In a statement, he cited the recent tragedy of a young man, Akash, from Saidapet, who ended his life after losing all his savings in online gambling. "Akash had spent all his savings and borrowed money from others to gamble online. He also lost Rs 30,000, which was meant for his mother's medical treatment. This devastating incident is yet another example of how online gambling pushes families into deep debt and despair," he said.
