The Directorate of Nagaland State Lotteries has declared results for three separate Dear lottery draws held on September 9, 2026. Each of the three draws, Dear Shine Morning, Dear Prestige Evening and Dear Destiny Night, carries its own bumper prize of Rs 1 crore, which means the day produced three separate crore-rupee winners rather than a single shared jackpot.
Three separate draws, one big day
The results cover the Dear Shine Morning draw at 1 PM, the Dear Prestige Evening draw at 6 PM and the Dear Destiny Night draw at 8 PM. These three draws are part of the Sambad Dear lottery series that Nagaland runs at fixed times through the day, giving ticket buyers three separate chances to win within the same 24 hours. The naming of each draw, Morning, Evening and Night, corresponds directly to when its result is declared, at 1 PM, 6 PM and 8 PM respectively. Because each is treated as an independent lottery with its own bumper prize and its own set of winners, a ticket bought for one time slot is checked only against that slot's own result list, and it does not carry forward or combine with either of the other two draws declared on the same date.
Six prizes in every draw
Every one of the three lotteries, Dear Shine Morning, Dear Prestige Evening and Dear Destiny Night, carries six prizes in total. The headline prize in each draw is the Rs 1 crore bumper amount, while the remaining five prize tiers make up the rest of the six-prize structure for that particular draw. In practice, that spreads winning amounts across more than a single ticket in each draw, giving buyers more than one way to win something even if they do not hold the specific bumper number. A single ticket for any of these draws costs Rs 6, the standard entry price that applies across all three lotteries declared on September 9, 2026.
Directorate of Nagaland State Lotteries runs the draw
The Dear lotteries are conducted by the Directorate of Nagaland State Lotteries, the state government body responsible for organising and declaring results for these draws. The lotteries are described as transparent, reflecting the fact that the draw process and the resulting prize list are managed directly under this state authority rather than by a private operator. Ticket holders for the Dear Shine Morning, Dear Prestige Evening and Dear Destiny Night draws are advised to check their ticket numbers carefully against the results published for each specific draw, since a winning number in one draw does not carry over to the other two.
