Solution

Hover or tap a marked figure, like 72,000, to see how it is made and where else it appears.

(i)True A lottery is a game of chance; where the prime motive of participants is gambling, it is a wager. Even if a lottery is sanctioned by the Government it is a wagering transaction: the sanction only means that those running it will not be punished under the Indian Penal Code.
