In 1867, gambling was banned in India. This means that you are not allowed to bet on your favorite cricket matches. The government shuts down the latest gangs who are involved with this type of gambling. But in some cases, there is a difference between games of skill and games of chance. People in India are able to place bets on games of skill, but sadly cricket is not one of them!This makes you wonder why lotteries and horse racing are allowed in the country. It is not clear why some games are legal when it comes to gambling while others are not. So, next question, do certain parts of India have more exemptions for gambling?
