AGARTALA, July 2 (TIWN): The illegal business of ending and gambling has been rampant here in Tripura-capital at every nook and corner with the gamblers making a hefty profit. Surprising, but one cannot deny to the fact that a large section of people belong to a good and patterned family are found engaged to the ending and gambling business who simply put hefty amount and sometimes return empty handed.

After the rural Tripura, the capital city has now gained a thrust for this illegal business. At the same time the young generation is on the verge of destruction, while anti- social activities going on at full swing from morning to evening all across the state.

On yet another major breakdown, Agartala West Police Station’s police on Thursday acting on a tip off had busted another gambling racket here at Battala area.

The West P.S. police conducting a raid at Battala Mahabir Club area had detained at least six, found engaged to the ending business. Police said, “We managed to detain those gamblers today from Battala and seized a cash of Rs. 22, 500.” The gamblers were identified as Abdul Salam, Chandan Ghosh, Narayan Sarkar, Krishna Dhar Sarkar, Prakash Saha, and Pintu Saha.

Police said, “We have also seized two digital calculators and along with six big size registers where their name, numbers and amount were put.”

However, the business has turned much profitable for a section of people of the state while the others engaged to the activity have been suffering from a great loss, as a section of young boys of the present age secretly takes the money from their parents to get engage to ending-gambling play cards.

Over the past decades addictions to gambling, have grown to an accelerated rate. Not only adults, but teenagers are gambling without realizing the consequences.
