Allahabad High Court rules poker and rummy as games of skill, contrary to gambling.

The Allahabad High Court has ruled that poker and rummy are games of skill rather than gambling. This decision arose from a petition by DM Gaming Private Limited, which contested the Agra City Commissionerate's refusal to allow the operation of these games. The court emphasized that authorities should base their decisions on concrete evidence, directing a reevaluation of the case within six weeks, allowing the petitioner to be heard.
