Kerala Lottery Result Announced for March 14, 2026 The Kerala State Lottery, known for its transparency and government oversight, released results for the Karunya KR-746 draw on Saturday, March 14, 2026. The draw, held at Gorky Bhavan in Thiruvananthapuram near Bakery Junction, featured a top prize of ₹1 crore, with the winner yet to be announced. Second and third prizes of ₹30 lakh and ₹5 lakh respectively were also up for grabs. Established in 1967 by the Government of Kerala, the state lottery was India’s first state-run lottery system. Its primary goals included providing employment to the poor and unemployed, raising funds for social welfare without increasing taxes, and eliminating illegal lottery activities. The initiative was spearheaded by then Finance Minister P. K. Kunju, and over time, the Kerala Lottery became a model for other states in India. The lottery operates under strict government control, with draws conducted publicly and results officially published and audited. This transparency has fostered public trust, leading to the adoption of similar systems by several Indian states. The Kerala Lottery offers a variety of draws, including weekly, monthly, and seasonal "bumper" lotteries. Weekly draws occur every Saturday at 3:00 PM, while bumper draws are held during festivals such as Christmas, Vishu, and Thiruvonam. The Karunya KR-746 draw, part of the weekly schedule, is one of the most anticipated events due to its substantial prize pool. The lottery’s structure ensures a mix of regular and special draws, catering to diverse participation patterns. The Kerala State Lotteries Department manages all operations, ensuring compliance with legal and ethical standards. The lottery’s impact extends beyond financial rewards, contributing to social welfare and economic stability.#thiruvananthapuram #gorky_bhavan #kerala_state_lottery #p_k_kunju #karunya_kr_746
