Members of the Mahilodaya Women's Federation have held a protest in Mysore, against what they describe as the growing menace of online lotteries.They marched to the Deputy Commissioner's office in Mysore and submitted a memorandum in support of their demands.
The protesters allege that most of those who, "fell prey to online lottery," were either "daily-wage workers or those who barely earned enough to eke out a living through menial jobs."
The federation, which is a subsidiary of the Organisation for Development of Women (ODP), urged the Chief Minister to take steps to bring in a law banning lotteries.
