Indian esports and gaming got a rare boost when Prime Minister Narendra Modi met some of the nations champion gamers. The PM had a gaming interaction with top Indian gamers like Animesh Agarwal (8Bit_Thug), Naman Mathur (Mortal), Payal Dhare (PayalGaming), Ganesh Gangadhar (SKRossi), Anshu Bisht (GamerFleet), Mithilesh Patankar (MythPat), and Tirth Mehta.
They discussed the latest developments in the gaming industry and how the Modi government has recognized the creativity of gamers in promoting the gaming industry in India. Additionally, they explored the topic of women’s participation in the gaming industry.
Lokesh Suji, Director, Esports Federation of India & Vice President of the Asian Esports Federation (AESF), said, “Meeting the Honorable Prime Minister Modi ji is a dream come true for our gamers and Esports athletes. Last year, our government recognized Esports as a sport and differentiated it from the umbrella term of online gaming. It is also encouraging that Modi ji realizes the difference between gambling, online gaming, video gaming, and Esports.
