INDORE: The Madhya Pradesh High Court has dismissed a public interest litigation (PIL) seeking a ban on the promotion of online gaming apps by cricketers M S Dhoni, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma and Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan. 

Online gaming is "not banned or prohibited" in the state and whether to play these mobile-based games or not was a matter of "self-restriction", the court ruled.

The order by a Division Bench of Justices Vivek Rusia and Amarnath Kesharwani, passed on September 5, became available on Tuesday, PTI reports.
