What is the matter?
The man, Ashfaq Khan, is disabled in both legs and had been repeatedly requesting a tricycle from the district administration to help him move and earn a living.
Ashfaq had earlier protested during a public hearing after losing patience over delays by the Collector’s office. A video from the hearing had gone viral, in which he was seen accusing officials of ignoring his requests for two years. He was also heard saying that without proper support, it had become difficult for him to survive and work.
After the issue gained attention, Umang Singhar took notice of Ashfaq’s condition. On his birthday, Singhar decided to fulfil the disabled man’s long-pending demand and gifted him a tricycle as a personal gesture.
