The Kerala State Lotteries Department holds the Suvarna Keralam SK-71 draw today, September 25, 2026, at 3 pm at Gorky Bhavan, Thiruvananthapuram. The first prize is Rs 1 crore, second prize Rs 30 lakh, third prize Rs 5 lakh, and a consolation prize of Rs 5,000. Ticket price is Rs 50. The Thiruvonam Bumper (BR-111) draw, with a first prize of Rs 30 crore, is scheduled for Saturday, September 26, at 2 pm at the same venue. The Hindu reports this is the first time the bumper first prize has been raised to Rs 30 crore, increased from Rs 25 crore in July. Around 90 lakh tickets were printed, of which 89.85 lakh were sold. Winners must submit their tickets to a bank within 30 days.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

Both Mathrubhumi and The Hindu offer straight news reporting on the Kerala lottery draws, with no discernible slant. The coverage focuses on draw schedules, prize structures, and claim procedures. The contrast lies in emphasis: Mathrubhumi leads with the weekly Suvarna Keralam draw, while The Hindu leads with the larger Onam Bumper. The Onam Bumper sale completion (89.85 lakh of 90 lakh tickets sold) implies strong public demand, a detail absent from Mathrubhumi's shorter piece. The draws proceed as scheduled. The first prize of Rs 30 crore in the Onam Bumper is a record for Kerala state lotteries.
