Use NGINX and you do not have to worry about .htaccess.

Is there a way remove index.php in Laravel without changing .htaccess
In our production server they have disabled .htaccess file to load in apache configuration for some security reasons, due to this all the URL's are added with index.php in addition.
Problem image url and curl request is not properly working due to the index.php added in addition to the url.
Is there are other way to do this.

Have them add it directly to the server config file.
Basically, my minor understanding to shut off htaccess to users is to prevent dumb people doing dumb things like screwing up the redirect to create loops. The biggest security issue I can think of is using the htaccess to point to dangerous files. But ... in this case, the hosting company already has trouble because ftp access has been gotten and a lot more could happen.
,Anyway, get them to add it to the config file directly which is actually the best way to do this.
