May 7, 2024
An inspirational voter who lost both hands 20 years ago casts vote through feet in western India’s Gujarat.
This happened in Nadiad polling booth in Kheda district on May 7.
Visuals showed, the voter name Ankit Soni bore the mark of the indelible ink on his toe.
According to the reports, Ankit Soni lost both his hands in an electric shock 20 years ago. While talking to the media he said “I lost both my hands in an electric shock two decades ago. With the guidance of my teachers and mentors, I completed my undergraduate and MBA studies. I rely on my feet for daily activities.
Today, I’ve come to vote, a practice I’ve been performing with my feet for years. I encourage fellow voters who haven’t yet cast their ballots to visit their polling stations because every vote matters.”
