In the Indian state of Kerala, the rickshaw driver Anup, who won the lottery of 25 crores, has stopped visiting his house. Anup is now regretting why his lottery was finally won at the beginning of this month, which has created yet another problem for him. Anup says that people have made my life miserable, it was better that I didn't win this lottery and the third prize was better for me. Anoop later released a video message asking strangers to stop harassing him and his family.
At present, Anup along with his family has left his home and is staying with his relatives. In his video message, Anoop said that he was thinking of shifting to an undisclosed location to avoid public attention. Anup and his family became the center of media attention after the news of winning the lottery. Anoop added, 'I was very happy when I won this award. There were people and cameras around the house and we were delighted.
Now I can't go out of the house
According to him, after that, the situation got out of control. He says that now I can't go anywhere outside the house. My child is sick but I cannot take him to the doctor Anup says that the flow of loan seekers starts in the morning and I have to tell everyone that I haven't received the money yet. No one is trying to understand my problem. No matter how many times I try to explain this to them.
The Kerala government says that before receiving the money, it will train Anup on financial management and how to spend the money. Rickshaw driver Anup's unique story of winning the lotteryWhen Anoop was extracting money by breaking his two-year-old son's throat, his wife was angry at this act. Ignoring his wife's anger, Anoop took 50 rupees from Gulak and bought an 'Onam Bumper' lottery ticket and won his prize of 25 crores on that ticket.Speaking to BBC Hindi, Anup said that she (the woman) was angrily saying that it is not right to break the gulak for the lottery ticket, but when I came to know that the lottery was won, I did not believe it. At first even my wife could not believe it, but later she was very happy. Anup needed 500 rupees to buy this lottery ticket but he had 450 rupees and he made up for the shortfall of 50 rupees by breaking his son's gulak. According to him, the lottery draw was going to be held the very next day, so he had no other option, but his effort proved to be like opening the door of fortune for his family.
It should be noted that Anup, a resident of Thirunanthapuram, the capital of Kerala, has a debt of several lakhs, which he now plans to pay off with this prize money. It is also a coincidence that last year the top prize of the Onam bumper lottery went to an auto rickshaw driver and Anup has also been driving an auto rickshaw.
At that time, 29-year-old Anoop said that I used to work in a restaurant. He also lived in Dubai for some time. After coming back, I started driving rickshaws here. I used to earn 20,000 to 25,000 rupees every month, but three months ago I quit my job.Took a loan from the bank to go to Malaysia After quitting his job as a rickshaw puller, Anup started looking for a job as a chef based on his experience and landed a job in Malaysia for Rs 50,000 per month.He also applied for a loan of three lakh rupees from a local bank to go to Malaysia. According to Anup, "The bank approved my loan application a day before the award, but I haven't gone to the bank yet."Anup had been buying lottery tickets continuously for seven years but never before he had a chance to win more than Rs 2000.He said, 'Earlier I used to buy lottery tickets occasionally but after a few years I started buying tickets regularly.'

After paying taxes and lottery agent's commission, Anup will get a total of Rs 15.75 crore from the prize money of Rs 25 crore. Asked what he would do with the money, Anup said, "Nothing has been thought of yet." I'm still scared. I will definitely build a house, I will also help the needy. Apart from this, I will also open a hotel.
He had to say that he would definitely do one thing and that is that even after winning the 'jackpot' he would continue to buy lottery tickets. Keep in mind that the Kerala government gets a lot of revenue from the sale of lottery tickets.As of last week, the government had collected about Rs 270 crore from the sale of lottery tickets after deducting the prize money and general sales tax payments.
