PS2 modded is a Modified version of the Playstation2, A small electronic device called a modchip is soldered or otherwise planted in the PS2 circuitry, in order to run bootlegged games/ homebrew code in it. For details about modchips please visit - www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/modchip

What, a modchip?

I do not think so, never heard of a way to circumvent copy protection by itself being illegal in India. Its use may be illegal when done for commercial purpose like you mod a console, get a pirated game and then rent out both to people to earn money, but if you mod your PS2 for yourself, its not illegal.

Modding is itself not illegal in India, because of the "make available clause" of DMCA not applying in India, (for that matter none of the clauses of DMCA are applicable in India.)

Everything implies the core topic under discussion. Chill out mate.
