The new lottery – Fifty-Fifty- launched by the Lottery department tells the tale of the distinctive growth trajectory of the lottery in the State.
“It has been 55 years since the Kerala lottery was started in 1967 and over 50 lakh people had hit the jackpot (major prizes) over the years. The name Fifty-Fifty, the first draw of which will be held on May 29, is the symbolic representation of these two fetes,” says Abraham Renn, Lottery Director.
The 55-year history also tells some hard stories of Keralites’ hard-earned addiction to the raffle.
