Kollam: The state lottery’s Christmas and New Year bumper prize of Rs 12 crore was won by a lottery seller. Sharafuddin, a native of Tenkasi, changed his life – one of the remaining tickets without selling!
Born in Ayur, Kollam, Sharafuddin has lived in Tenkashi for 45 years. Four years ago, he returned home after a long exile. He started selling lottery tickets along with farming to make a living. Bharani bought tickets from Lucky Agency in Aryankavu and sold them on a bike. From Aryankavu to Punalur, they usually return by bike. Despite knowing that he is a millionaire, Sharafuddin is not overjoyed. The goal is to settle financial obligations first. Prize-winning tickets were delivered to the lottery office yesterday. 7.56 crore after tax. Sabina is his wife. Son: Pervez Musharraf.
