If Matka Is Legalised, People Can Play It Online Too!: Lobo
Goa BJP MLA Michael Lobo on Wednesday suggested that the government should bring ‘Matka Gambling’ under state lotteries which in turn will help the state exchequer through GST and tender.
Michael Lobo said that lotteries have low response now, but ‘Matka’ is being played widely.
“Matka is profitable. It is operated in all constituencies. If it is brought under lotteries then the state government will gain profit through GST. In a big way, the treasury will get money. Also people will get money officially,” he said.
