Whenever BGMI updates get delayed, people fear another impending ban from the Indian government. It is customary for updates to get postponed if Krafton does not get permission to release new updates in the game.

So, one might wonder if the game will get banned again. As of this writing, there is no need for players to worry about BGMI being taken away. As far as we know, the update was most likely delayed because of ongoing BGIS matches.

Esports is a massive faction of Battlegrounds Mobile India and professional players expect to play these high-octane competitive games with flawless efficiency. Since new updates often introduce several bugs and glitches, Krafton may have deliberately delayed the BGMI 3.2 update for ongoing esports matches.

No release date specified for BGMI 3.2 update

No official announcement has been made so far and chances are the update might get delayed further if Krafton prioritizes the esports matches. BGIS fetches a lot of revenue for the company and players have a lot on the line. Players will have to wait for BGMI's social media handles to release more information about the upcoming update.
