Rs 200 lottery coupon makes six-year-old the owner of a Toyota Fortuner

BHOPAL: A six-year-old boy from Madhya Pradesh has won a Toyota Fortuner SUV worth around Rs 50 lakh through a lottery coupon costing just Rs 200. Medhansh Raikwar, a resident of Burhanpur, is now the proud owner of the luxury vehicle after an unexpected stroke of luck.

The winning coupon was purchased by his grandmother, Kiran Raikwar, a year ago. She bought it for Rs 200 during a Garba celebration held at Shri Sarkar Dham in Abhapuri. She had entered her grandson Medhansh's name on the coupon.

When the lucky draw results were announced at the Dham, Medhansh emerged as the winner of the first prize. The news brought immense joy to the family and local residents. People in the neighbourhood welcomed the boy and his family with band performances and celebrations. The family also performed special prayers and rituals after receiving the vehicle.

The family had been dreaming of buying a car of their own for the past two years. They are now overwhelmed with happiness and disbelief as a Rs 200 lottery coupon has turned that dream into reality. The unusual stroke of luck has also gone viral on social media, with many congratulating the young winner.
