Shivam Mishra, Raipur. Gambling and betting business has completely taken hold of the capital. Raipur police is just doing the formality in the name of action. The people running gambling and betting in the capital are so emboldened that they are not afraid of the police at all. The police in the capital talks about tightening the noose on gambling and betting but despite this, gambling business is going on in many areas of the capital.
When Lalluram.com got information about a gambling den in the capital’s Abhanpur area, we investigated the matter, during which dozens of people were seen openly betting fearlessly in a field, which we captured on camera. In the video, it can be seen that playing cards and five hundred rupee notes are laid out on the den on a carpet spread on the ground and dozens of people sitting in a circle are openly betting fearlessly.

About 10 lakh rupees are at stake daily
According to information received from sources, the city’s bookies are running gambling dens worth lakhs of rupees every day in many areas of the city including Gudhiyari, Pirda, Mahadevghat, Indraprastha Colony, Abhanpur and Dharsiwan. People from far and wide are coming here to gamble. In some of these areas, gambling business is set up in two shifts, day and night. In the Abhanpur area alone, gambling worth about 10 lakh rupees takes place every day. Local people allege that the police officers are in cahoots with the gamblers, which is why they are not caught.
Gambling addiction is ruining people
It is worth noting that gambling addiction is pushing people towards ruin. Due to this habit, many gamblers have lost lakhs of rupees and are now on the verge of ruin. In an attempt to compensate for their losses, dozens of gamblers have fallen into the trap of moneylenders and are burdened with heavy debt. Sometimes the situation worsens so much that gamblers take money on interest to gamble and are forced to mortgage their houses, land and even jewelry when they are unable to repay it. In such a situation, this debt is not only ruining their financial condition, but is also having a deep impact on their families.
