The lottery has also gained popularity beyond Sanguem, with winners in previous editions reported from Cacora, Sanguem, Bambolim, Ponda, Usgao, Sanvordem, Sattari, Valpoi and Margao, besides areas of Maharashtra, including Sindhudurg.
In view of the expected rush for the donation coupons, elaborate arrangements have been made at the distribution and sales venue near the Sanguem Police Station and opposite the Tribal Research Institute.
Barricades have been erected and a dedicated ground has been prepared to accommodate the public and prevent people from having to stand on the main road.
Several counters have also been arranged at the Sanguem Municipal Rest House to ensure smooth and orderly sale and distribution of the donation coupons.
