A Dubai truck driver from Punjab has won a lottery prize worth ₹1.3 crore. The unexpected win brings a major financial boost for him and his five friends, who share the prize money. The win has drawn attention because the driver works in the transport sector in Dubai, far from his home state. His story highlights how a lottery win can bring sudden financial changes to the lives of people working overseas.
The Times of India reported that Kulwant Singh, a 53-year-old truck driver from Punjab, won Dh500,000 (around ₹1.3 crore) in the Abu Dhabi Big Ticket lottery. He has lived in Dubai for 18 years and shares a home in Jebel Ali with his family.
Kulwant Singh bought lottery tickets with five friends, and they continued trying for about two years. The six friends won Dh500,000 and will split the money among themselves. Each friend will get a portion of the prize. The group now has a chance to use the money for their individual needs and plans, including their financial goals.
“I want to use the money for my family and towards our home,” said Kulwant Singh, as reported by The Times of India.
Kulwant Singh plans to use his share of the lottery money to help his family and contribute towards their home. After living and working in Dubai for 18 years, the win gives him extra money to put towards his family’s needs and future plans.
A Kerala engineer won ₹26 lakh in a lottery by choosing a number linked to his son’s birth date. He used the special date when picking his ticket, which turned out to be the winning choice. The win came as a surprise and made his son’s birth date even more memorable for him.
A Kerala man living in Oman has won ₹65 lakh in a lottery after buying tickets for almost 10 years. He continued taking part in the draws over the years before finally winning the prize. The win brings a welcome change after years of waiting for his number to come up.
