The Supreme Court upheld the notifications issued by the State of Kerala under Section 5 of the Lotteries (Regulation) Act, 1998, which prohibited the sale of online and computerized lottery tickets, declaring the state a Lottery Free Zone. The Court found that the differentiation between paper lotteries and online lotteries was justified and did not violate any legal provisions. Consequently, the appeals filed by the All Kerala Online Lottery Dealers Association were dismissed, affirming the High Court's decision.
