Reportedly, Hamsa is a salesman and lottery agent, and had won the third prize in the Nirmal lottery that took place on 10 August. 

Seeing the devastation all around his state, Hamsa, accompanied by his wife Sonia, and daughters Hanna Fathima and Hadia, met Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and handed over the winning ticket to him. 

He also requested the Chief Minister to get a government official to redeem the ticket and use the money for relief work. 

Kerala CM has urged all the Malayalis all over the world to donate their one month’s salary towards the relief efforts in Kerala. 

The man inspires us to do our bit in rebuilding the flood-hit state.
