Aaj Ka Lottery Sambad: Today’s Result in Simple Words
Updated
Aaj ka Lottery Sambad simply means “today’s lottery news”: the result of the three Dear draws held today. This page puts today’s board first. After that it explains, in plain English, the Hindi and Bengali words people really say and type when they look for it, from “aaj ke” and “ajker” to “ektar”, “chhota” and “atta”. If your phone wrote “actor” or “after” for you, you are in the right place.
Aaj ka Lottery Sambad: today’s three draws
The board shows today’s date in Indian time and one card for each draw. A card counts down until its draw. When the published sheet has been read, the card turns into the result by itself, with the first prize on top.

Early in the day, before 1:00 PM, there is no new number yet. The board then shows three countdowns and the last stored result under them, clearly marked with its own date. The same board opens the home page, where a chart of recent days sits below it.
The board is not a video. It is a clock and a text card, and it asks our results service for a new sheet every 20 seconds around a draw. If your connection drops, the stored numbers stay on screen.
What “aaj ka” means, and its many spellings
“Aaj” is today. “Aaj ka” is “today’s”. “Sambad” is news, in Bengali and in several other Indian languages. Put together, the phrase is a short, natural way to ask: what came in the lottery today?
Because the words are spoken more than written, they show up in many forms. “Aaj ke lottery sambad” and “aaj ki” are the same Hindi words with another ending. “Ajker lottery sambad” is the Bengali form. “Aajkal” means “these days” and is often added by habit. None of these is a separate lottery or a separate result.
English spelling of Indian words is never fixed, so do not worry about typing it “right”. One a or two, a space or none: the request is clear. What matters is the date on the result you end up reading. It must be today’s date, in Indian time.
The words people say for each draw
Ask at a ticket stall which draw someone is waiting for and you will rarely hear “1 PM”. You will hear a Bengali clock word, or “morning” and “night”. Voice typing then turns those sounds into English letters, sometimes into the wrong English word. This table decodes them.
| Word on the screen | What was said | Meaning | Draw |
|---|---|---|---|
| ektar | ekta-r (Bengali) | Of one o’clock | 1 PM |
| actor | ekta-r, misheard by voice typing | Of one o’clock | 1 PM |
| dupur | dupur | Afternoon | 1 PM |
| morning | morning | The first draw of the day | 1 PM |
| chhota, chhatar | chhoy-ta (Bengali) | Six o’clock | 6 PM |
| day, evening | day, evening | The middle draw | 6 PM |
| atta, aat-ta | aat-ta (Bengali) | Eight o’clock | 8 PM |
| after | aat-ta, misheard by voice typing | Eight o’clock | 8 PM |
| raat, night | raat | Night, the last draw | 8 PM |
A few of these deserve a line. “Actor” has nothing to do with films, and “after” has nothing to do with “later”. They are what a phone writes when it expects English and hears Bengali. “Chhota” looks like the Hindi word for small, but here it is the six o’clock draw, and its first prize is not smaller.
Each draw has a page that opens on its own newest sheet: the 1 PM morning result, the 6 PM evening result and the 8 PM night result.
Today’s three draw times
The times of aaj ka Lottery Sambad are the same every day of the week. Only the draw names change with the weekday. On the result lists we read, two of the draws are listed under one state lottery and one under another.
| Draw | Time (IST) | Everyday name | Words you may hear | Listed under |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 PM | 1:00 PM | Morning | ektar, actor, dupur | Nagaland State Lottery |
| 6 PM | 6:00 PM | Evening | chhota, chhatar | Sikkim State Lottery |
| 8 PM | 8:00 PM | Night | atta, aat-ta, after, raat | Nagaland State Lottery |
“Rajya” is the Hindi and Bengali word for state, so “rajya lottery” is simply “state lottery”. If that is the word you use, the page on rajya lottery results explains which state stands behind which draw.
We do not name an exact minute for a result. Sheets usually reach public lists within minutes of the draw, and some days take longer than others.
How aaj ka Lottery Sambad fills up in a day
“Today’s result” is not one moment. It arrives in three parts, and what you see depends on the hour.
- Morning, before 1:00 PM. Nothing new yet. The freshest complete result is the previous day’s, on the page for yesterday’s three draws.
- Soon after 1:00 PM. The first card fills. Two cards still count down.
- Soon after 6:00 PM. The second card fills. Take care not to compare a 6 PM ticket with the 1 PM number above it.
- Soon after 8:00 PM. The third card fills and today is complete.
- After midnight. The board moves to the new date. What was “aaj ka” a minute ago is now “kal ka”, yesterday’s.
You do not need to reload while you wait. If you want a bigger clock and the full sheets under the cards, open the live result board.
Khela, tarikh, fax: other words you will meet
Draw words are only half of the vocabulary. These are the others that turn up next to “aaj ka” in searches and in talk between players.
| Word | Meaning | How it is used |
|---|---|---|
| khela | Game, draw | “Aaj ka khela”: today’s draw |
| kal ka | Yesterday’s | “Kal ka result”: the previous day’s sheets |
| tarikh | Date | “26 tarikh”: the result of the 26th |
| rajya | State | “Rajya lottery”: state lottery |
| fax | The result sheet | From the days when sheets reached sellers by fax |
| sambad | News | The daily result announcement |
“Fax” is the one that surprises younger readers. Result sheets were once sent to sellers by fax, and the name stuck to the sheet. “Tarikh” is useful when you look for an older day: every stored date has its own page here, so “26 tarikh” leads to one exact sheet.
We explain these words because they are how people really speak. A results page that only understands textbook English is not much use at a ticket stall.
Checking a ticket against today’s result
Once the card for your draw has filled, checking takes a minute. Look at the ticket: it has a series, which is two digits and a letter, and a five-digit number. It also names its draw and its date.
- Confirm that the date on the board is the date on your ticket.
- Open the full sheet of your draw, not of another draw of the same day.
- Compare the series and five digits with the first prize, then the five digits with the second prize line.
- Compare your last four digits with the lower prize lines.
A ticket is paid for one prize, the highest it matches, and only on the draw printed on it. If you would rather type than read, the ticket checker tests your number against all three draws of aaj ka Lottery Sambad and names the prize tier.
Whatever our page shows, a prize is paid on the result printed in the government gazette. We copy published sheets with care, but a copy can carry a mistake.
Aaj ka Lottery Sambad: short answers
What does aaj ka Lottery Sambad mean?
“Aaj ka” is Hindi for “today’s”, and “sambad” means news. Together the phrase asks for today’s lottery news: the result of the Dear draws held today at 1:00 PM, 6:00 PM and 8:00 PM Indian time.
Are “aaj ke”, “aaj ki” and “ajker” different results?
No. “Aaj ke” and “aaj ki” are other forms of the same Hindi words, and “ajker” is the Bengali way to say “today’s”. Whichever one you type, you are asking for the same three draws of today.
Why did my phone write “actor” or “after” when I asked for the result?
You probably spoke Bengali to it. “Ekta-r” (of one o’clock) is heard as “actor”, and “aat-ta” (eight o’clock) is heard as “after”. The phone picked the nearest English word. Your search still means the 1 PM or the 8 PM draw.
At what time does aaj ka Lottery Sambad come?
Three times a day. The draws are at 1:00 PM, 6:00 PM and 8:00 PM, and each sheet usually reaches public lists within minutes of its draw. The board on this page fills one card at a time as the sheets are read.
What is “aaj ka khela”?
“Khela” means game in Bengali, and lottery players use it for a draw. “Aaj ka khela” is today’s draw. There is nothing to play on this website, though. We only show the published result.
What do people mean by the lottery “fax”?
It is an old habit. Result sheets were once sent to sellers by fax, and the word stayed as a name for the result sheet itself. When someone asks for today’s fax, they want today’s sheet.
Can I see aaj ka Lottery Sambad before the draw?
No, and nobody can. Before a draw the card shows a countdown, not a number. Anyone who offers today’s number early, as a tip or for a fee, is not telling the truth.
Does “aajkal” mean the same as “aaj ka”?
Not exactly. “Aajkal” means “these days”. People who add it to a lottery search usually want the current result all the same, so the board on this page answers it too.
Whatever you call it, it is today’s sheet
Aaj ka Lottery Sambad, “aaj ke”, “ajker”: each one asks for the result of today’s three Dear draws. “Ektar” or “actor” is the 1 PM draw, “chhota” is 6 PM, “atta” or “after” is 8 PM. The board at the top of this page answers all of them, one card at a time.
Read the date, pick your own draw and match from the first prize down. Keep in mind that this is an information page: it sells no tickets, and the gazette result is the final one.
