What Makes Karunya Plus Different?
Unlike most weekly draws, Karunya Plus revenue is specifically directed to the Kerala Chief Minister’s Distress Relief Fund (CMDRF) — a government fund used for disaster relief, medical emergencies, and welfare of economically weaker sections. When you buy a Karunya Plus ticket, you are indirectly contributing to state welfare.
This social impact narrative makes Karunya Plus particularly popular among buyers who want their lottery spend to serve a dual purpose.
