PUBG banned by the Bombay High Court? These reports are not true


PUBG banned by Bombay High Court? A notice claiming that PUBG mobile game has been banned in India is doing the rounds on social media but that's a fake.


PUBG banned in Maharashtra by the Bombay High Court for the state of Maharastra? That’s fake news and the so called notice is also fake.

PUBG or PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds has certainly become a very popular mobile game in India, and while some colleges might have banned the game, reports that the Bombay High Court banned the game are fake.

According to a reports on Gadgets360, a fake notice claiming that PUBG has been banned by the Bombay High Court is doing the rounds on social media platforms like Facebook, etc. The reason fro this ban is allegedly because PUBG is creating a lot of nuisance and apparently causing students to spoil their lives.

Of course, by that logic many mobile games can be considered as a nuisance, but the so-called order has too many grammatical errors to be true. For starts, the spelling of magistrates is totally wrong. Also as Gadgets360 points out the order has been signed by a K Srinivasulu with the designation being prejudge.


There is no designation like that in the Indian High Courts, one is simply designated a High Court Judge. Or there are district court judges in the lower courts of India. The designation prejudge is a clear indication that this is fake.

Further, the order seems to have been issued by a ‘Center for governance’ and it also mentions ‘legally notices’ when the term is in fact legal notice. It also claims that ‘All we have knew that a few countries took action on ban of this game,’ which is grammatically wrong and sounds rather vague for an actual legal judgement.
Plus the Bombay High Court bench does not have a judge by the name of K Srinivasulu. Going to the Bombay High Court website shows a list of all present judges on the court, and this name is not on the list.

Momo suicide game

Microsoft clamps down on sick 'Momo suicide game' in 'Minecraft' Microsoft is clamping down on the sick “Momo suicide challenge,” which recently infiltrated the wildly popular online game “Minecraft.”The tech giant owns “Minecraft” developer Mojang. The vile “Momo suicide game” has been garnering attention after spreading on WhatsApp, prompting police warnings. "Momo" is a viral challenge that asks people to add a contact via WhatsApp - they are then   urged   to commit self-harm or suicide. The "game" has fueled comparisons to the sinister " Blue Whale challenge " that led to reports of suicides in Russia and the U.S, as well as the online fictional character of "Slender Man." In 2014 two 12-year-old girls in Wisconsin  attempted to kill   a classmate in an attempt to please the horror character. The Buenos Aires Times recently  reported  that police in Argentina are investigating whether “Momo” is linked to the suicide of a 12-y...

Java Functional Interfaces

  The term   Java functional interface   was introduced in Java 8. A   functional interface   in Java is an interface that contains only a single abstract (unimplemented) method. A functional interface can contain default and static methods which do have an implementation, in addition to the single unimplemented method. Here is a Java functional interface example: public interface MyFunctionalInterface { public void execute(); } The above counts as a functional interface in Java because it only contains a single method, and that method has no implementation. Normally a Java interface does not contain implementations of the methods it declares, but it can contain implementations in default methods, or in static methods. Below is another example of a Java functional interface, with implementations of some of the methods: public interface MyFunctionalInterface2{ public void execute(); public default void print(String text) { System.out.println(t...
