Learn about India's first and most popular lottery system
Kerala Lottery is the first of its kind in India and was started in 1967. It has since become a model for other state lotteries in the country. The lottery system was established by the Government of Kerala with the aim of generating revenue for the state while providing employment opportunities.
Over the decades, Kerala Lottery has grown into a massive operation with weekly draws and numerous schemes that benefit people from all walks of life. The lottery has gained immense popularity due to its transparency, regularity, and the life-changing prizes it offers.
