Kottayam (Kerala), Jan 16 (PTI): A painting worker here has won Rs 12 crore in the Christmas-New Year bumper lottery.
Sadanandan of Aymananam bought the lottery ticket from a vendor on Sunday morning -- a few hours before the lucky draw took place in Thiruvananthapuram.
''I bought the prize-winning ticket from Selvan (lottery vendor) this morning when I went to the nearby market for buying meat,'' Sadandandan, who has been a painting worker for the last 50 years, told reporters.
He said the amount would be utilised for arranging better living condition for his children.
