Dr. Y. section Chitale	 Vimal Dave	 Randhir Singh O. Swamy	 Vineet Kumar	 N. K. Sharma	 Ms. Deepika Saxena. section M. Ashri and M. Veerappa for the Petitioners. N. H. Gursahani and M. N. Shroff for the Respondent. The Judgment of the Court was delivered by CHINNAPPA REDDY	 J. This order is virtually a postscript to our judgment in H. Anraj and Ors. vs State of Maharashtra What was in question in H. Anraj and Ors. vs State of Maharashtra was the ban imposed by the Government of Maharashtra on the sale of tickets of lotteries conducted by the Government of other States in the State of Maharashtra. What is presently in question in the writ petitions before us is the ban on the sale of tickets of lotteries authorised but not organized by the Governments of other States. Specifically	 we are concerned with the ban on sale	 within the State of Maharashtra	 of tickets of lotteries organised by the Indian Red Cross Society	 Dadra and Nagar Haveli branch and authorised by the administration of Dadra and Nagar Haveli. In Anraj and Ors. vs State of Maharashtra we held that the subject" 203 "Lotteries organised by the Government of India or the Government of a State" had been taken out from the legislative field	 comprised by the expression "Betting and Gambling" in Entry 34 of List II of Schedule VII and was reserved to be dealt with by Parliament under Entry 40 of List I of Schedule VII. Even so	 we held	 article 298 of the Constitution left the Government of a State free to carry on any trade or business in respect of which it may not have the power to make laws	 but that the power to carry on such trade or business shall be subject to legislation by Parliament. Therefore	 we said	 in the absence of Parliamentary legislation	 the Government of every State had the unrestricted right to organise lotteries and this right was not subject to the executive power of the Government of India or the executive and legislative powers of other States. Consequently	 we held that the Government of Maharashtra did not have the right to impose a ban on the sale and distribution of tickets of lotteries organised by other States in the State of Maharashtra. In the instant cases	 we are concerned not with the ban on lotteries organised by the Governments of other States but with the ban on lotteries authorised by such Governments and organised by institutions and persons other than the Governments. The source of power is not in question. It is to be found in Entry 34 of List II of Schedule VII which empowers the State legislature to make laws in respect of "Betting and Gambling"	 which expression has always been held to include the conduct of lotteries. While lotteries organised by the Government of India or the Government of a State have been taken out of Entry 34 of List II of Schedule VII by Entry 40 of List I	 there is no question about the competence of the Legislature of Maharashtra to legislate in respect of the sale or distribution	 in the State of Maharashtra	 of tickets of all lotteries organised by any agency whatsoever other than the Government of India or the Government of a State. The Bombay Lotteries (Control and Tax) and Prize Competition (Tax) Act	 1958 is an Act to control and tax lotteries and prize competition in the State of Maharashtra. Section 3 of the Act declares: "Save as provided by the Act	 all lotteries are unlawful." The Act contains detailed provisions for the licensing	 regulation and control of lotteries within State of Maharashtra. By Sec. 32 (c)	 it is provided that nothing in the Act shall apply to "a lottery specially authorised by the State Government. " The submission of Dr. Chitale	 learned counsel for the petitioners	 was that the exemption from the applicability of the Act granted to lotteries "especially authorised by the State Government"	 that is	 by the 204 Government of Maharashtra	 was discriminatory; the exemption should be extended to all lotteries authorised by the Government of any State whatsoever. Article 14 of the Constitution is invoked in aid of the submission; the reason for exempting lotteries authorised by the Government of Maharashtra from the applicability of the Act and not lotteries authorised by the Governments of other States is patent. In the case of lotteries authorised by the Government of Maharashtra	 the Government of Maharashtra may retain to itself all necessary powers for the regulation and control and the prevention of misuse of funds and exploitation of guileless members of the public. In the case of lotteries authorised by the Governments of other States it may be difficult and even impossible for the Government of Maharashtra to take adequate regulatory steps to prevent abuse of the authority given by Governments of other States to non Governmental agencies to organise lotteries. It may be equally difficult for the Governments of other States to take adequate measures for prevention of abuse of such authority within the State of Maharashtra. We are	 therefore	 satisfied that no hostile discrimination whatever is involved in not extending the exemption from the applicability of the Act to lotteries authorised but not organised by the Governments of other States. The Writ Petitions are accordingly	 dismissed with costs. N.V.K. Petition dismissed.

The petitioner in their writ petitions to this Court contested the ban on sale within the State of Maharashtra	 of tickets of lottories organised by the Indian Red Cross Society	 Dadra and Nagar Haveli branch and authorised by the administration of Dadra and Nagar Haveli. Dismissing the writ petitions	 ^ HELD: (1) (i) The Bombay Lotteries (Control and tax) and Prize Competition (Tax) Act	 1958 is an Act to control and tax lotteries and prize competition in the State of Maharashtra. The Act contains detailed provisions for the licensing	 regulation and control of lottery within the State of Maharashtra. Section 32(c)	 provides that nothing in the Act shall apply to "a lottery specially authorised by the State Government." [203G H] (ii) In the case of lotteries authorised by the Government of Maharashtra	 the Government of Maharashtra may retain to itself all necessary powers for the regulation and control and the prevention of misuse of fund and exploitation of guileless members of the public. In the case of lotteries authorised by the Government of other States it may be difficult and even impossible for the Government of Maharashtra to take adequate regulatory steps to prevent abuse of the authority given by Governments of other States to non Governmental agencies to organize lotteries. It may be equally difficult for the Governments of other States to take 202 adequate measures for prevention of abuse of such authority within the State of Maharashtra. [204C D] 2. No hostile discrimination whatever is involved in not extending the exemption from the applicability of the Bombay Lotteries (Control and Tax) and Prize Competition (Tax) Act	 1958 'to lotteries authorised but not organized by the Government of other States '. [204D] 3. Lotteries organised by the Government of India or the Government of the State have been taken out from Entry 34 of List II of Schedule VII by Entry 40 of List 1. There is	 therefore no question about the competence of the Legislature of Maharashtra to legislate in respect of the sale or distribution	 in the State of Maharashtra	 of tickets of all lotteries organized by any agency whatsoever other than the Government of India or the Government of a State.
