Uttar Pradesh Election: Zahir Khan whose spinal cord has been damaged for the past 15 years owing to which he has been paralysed, was brought to the polling both by his family members.
Zahir Khan travelled in an ambulance to cast his vote in Uttar Pradesh's Hapur constituency, as polling began in the first phase of the assembly elections in the state.
Mr Khan, whose spinal cord has been damaged for the past 15 years because of which he has been paralysed, was brought to the polling booth by his family members.
Once Mr Khan reached the station, he was carried on a stretcher inside the polling station in order to cast his vote.
"This government is not for anyone's benefit. There is widespread unemployment and the simplest of works cannot be completed by them," a seemingly angry Mr Khan said.
