Mathrubhumi reports that the outcome would be announced at two in the afternoon. The lottery site claims that the amount of money that will be awarded to the winner of the first prize is the most money that has ever been awarded in the entire history of Kerala’s lottery. The Government of Kerala is in charge of running the Kerala State Lotteries, which were first launched in 1967. Ahead of this, the Kerala lottery department had, in order to celebrate the beginning of the new year according to the Malayalam calendar, announced the winners of the Vishu Bumper.
