Popular BGMI streamer Krutika requests YouTube to restore her channel, stating breach of policy was unintentional

Krutika Plays' channel was deleted on 21 October 2021 due to a breach of YouTube's policy against explicit content. She said the following in her Instagram story,

"I received an email today notifying me that my channel has been terminated due to a violation of YouTube's rules and regulations."

Further adding to the reason behind the suspension, she explained:

"So, I was live-streaming on my channel yesterday while reviewing memes on my Discord server when someone posted something obscene, which was broadcasted on my stream. I made the video private right away, but if I had that knowledge that I needed to delete it, I would have done so. Nothing transpired yesterday, but today I got an email notifying me that the channel has been deleted."

Finally, Krutika added,

"Whatever happens, I will let you know; maybe I will get it back or maybe not. "

The BGMI streamer has also tweeted, tagging YouTube and YouTube India, requesting help to recover her channel. She stated in the tweets that the video played on the stream was unintentional and that she had made the video private instantaneously.
