The Gujarat High Court has received a second petition to allow poker games in the state.

Hotel Ramada, located in the city of Ahmedabad, has filed a petition seeking an order directing local authorities to permit a “peaceful conduct” of poker games, The Times of India reported.

The hotel, according to the report, had filed a request before the state government, municipal authorities and local police station to allow it to hold the game of poker in its premises. MaulinPandya, lawyer for Hotel Ramada, said the police did not respond to representations made by his client, which led to the hotel management to push through with organizing the game.

The poker game, however, was halted after the Anandnagar police station called the station.
