His concern is about going to jail. I've previously read about similar cases of cards getting blocked due to them being used for international transactions prohibited under FEMA but I've not heard of anyone going to jail for it; nonetheless, if that's a concern, then it might be time to consult a decent lawyer.

This is the "free" country we live in, where a person can't even do something that doesn't hurt anyone else, with HIS OWN money! Whether it's forex trading or gambling or whatever, so long as you're not hurting someone else or stealing from or defrauding someone, people should be free to do what they want involving mutual voluntary interaction between other free people, that's true freedom!

Go to bank and ask them bank account close form and close account simple as that

I have the same thing happened to me with HDFC credit card ( although not for betting but for forex trading). I wrote to them asking for unblocking the card for which they said they cant
couple of options you have:
1. Ask betway to withdraw the money to skrill etc telling them your card is blocked. They will probably ask for a mail as proof
2.request write to your bank that you have money outstanding which you will get deposited to your card , after which they can block
3. your mail says debit card will be blocked in 30 days , if it is not blocked already , withdraw your money ASAP
