On The Afghanistan Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (ATRA) on Thursday suspended the game in the country temporarily.

The statement from ATRA Chairman implicates that the ban was imposed due to its ill impacts.
Before taking the strong step, the ATRA had consulted various ministries, psychologists, parents, school headmasters, cyber security experts, and more before handing out this suspension.
This bans in several countries is not at all a good sign for PUBG fans, especially for India wherein fans were hoping to see the game soon and with list of countries getting added to the Ban list would really dishearten the fans. With so many things going on, with regards to the game it is clear enough that the unban would not to be seen soon.
