Also in Mumbai, two brothers from Sion Koliwada locality have built an effigy of PUBG on a mobile to spread awareness about the game's negative impact on children.
The twin brothers, Amar and Ashish Vitthal, who also plan to burn the effigy today on Holika Dahan, said: "It [PUBG] must be banned. Parents say that we children play PUBG all day. They appreciate us for the concept."
"People are becoming violent by playing PUBG, children are not focussing on studies. So we came up with this concept. Earlier, we had created awareness about noise pollution, demonetisation etc. We will burn this effigy during Holika Dahan. We want to spread a social message," Amar added.
