Nomoskar, I recently came across Shillong Teer, an archery-based lottery game that seems to be hugely popular in Meghalaya. But I was wondering – is Shillong Teer actually legal in India? If yes, what makes it different from other betting or lottery games that are banned in many states? I’ve heard that it’s not just a game but also has a cultural and traditional significance for the people of Meghalaya.
Also, why are locals so crazy about Shillong Teer? Is it purely about winning money, or does it have a deeper connection with their lifestyle and traditions? If anyone from Meghalaya or someone who plays Teer regularly can share their experience, that would be great! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
