Bhubaneswar: The menace of online game 'Blue Whale' remains a major concern for Odisha Police even as it reviews how many children in the state had fallen prey so far, a top official said today. "The headquarters have already issued an alert to all police stations on the Blue Whale game. It is a major concern for the police. We will soon review how many kids in the state have become victims of the deadly game," the newly-appointed director-general of police R P Sharma said here.   

Blue Whale is a controversial internet game played on smart phones, in which a series of tasks, mostly brutal, are given to players for a period of 50 days. The player is asked to share photos after finishing the different levels of the game. Some of the recent deaths of children in the age group 12-19 years have been linked to the game. A 1986-batch IPS officer, Sharma assumed office of the DGP yesterday. PTI
