Punjab Baisakhi Lottery Ludhiana: When the higher power gives, it gives generously. This proved true in Ludhiana, Punjab, when an 80-year-old retired postmaster from Delhi became a millionaire overnight after buying a ticket from a city lottery agency. The lottery ticket he purchased won a prize of 6 crore rupees. For Om Prakash, a retired postmaster from West Vihar, Delhi, this Baisakhi brought immense joy. Om Prakash had been buying lottery tickets for the past 30 years. The holy month of Baisakh began on April 3. Om Prakash bought this ticket on April 1 from Gandhi Brothers lottery shop number 55, located at Ghanta Ghar.

On April 18, the first prize of 6 crore rupees from the Baisakhi bumper was drawn. The first prize number is B-series 520720. Om Prakash bought this lottery for 500 rupees. Thus, 500 rupees won him a 6 crore prize. His entire family was shocked when they learned about the bumper lottery win.

Passion changed life

Om Prakash said, ‘I liked playing the lottery. I often used to get lottery tickets from relatives via courier. When I checked the lottery application, I found out that I had won the bumper. We called Gandhi Brothers, but couldn’t talk that day. The next day, they called us to Ludhiana. They helped us claim the lottery. Only our documents were needed to claim the lottery; not a single extra penny was taken from us.’

Celebration in the family

Om Prakash’s son Manoj takes care of his father and the entire family. Om Prakash, a resident of Delhi, said that he had never won any prize before. The retired postmaster from Delhi used to visit his relatives in Ludhiana often. His sister-in-law lives in Ludhiana. Upon winning the prize, he first told his son Manoj that the draw had come out. He also said that it would take 10 to 15 days to receive the lottery money.

The family celebrated at the center. There is a festive atmosphere in the entire family. His son Manoj said that his father gets a pension from the post office, so he is not greedy for money. They will use this money properly. They will also help the needy in the area and orphanages. This money means a lot.

Upon hearing this news, a devotional song for the mother goddess came to mind. You can read it here and hum along, and pray to the mother goddess to brighten your luck and fill your lap.

Offering to the mother – Make me win a ten crore lottery (lagva de maiya lottery das crore ki Lyrics in Hindi)

Make me win a lottery, mother, make me win, mother…victory! Make me win a lottery, of ten crores. I have heard that from your door, you never send anyone away empty-handed,

You fill everyone’s laps, you break no one’s heart, make me win, mother…victory! A lottery, of ten crores.

Make my dreams come true. I will always sing your praises. I want to take a happy, grand life, buy a bungalow, buy a car.

You, in the midst of my troubles…victory! You never abandon your devotees, make me win, mother…victory! A lottery…

You fill a pot with an ocean. You turn mud into gold. You make a poor man a king, you wake up sleeping fortunes in an instant.

To give happiness to your beloved ones…victory! You wear a red veil, make me win, mother…victory! A lottery…

Mother, change my body too. Show me a miracle, mother. Fulfill all my desires, brighten the stars of my destiny.</p

Ludhiana

Ludhiana is a major industrial city in the Indian state of Punjab, known as the “Manchester of India” for its large-scale textile and hosiery production. Historically, the city was founded in 1480 by the Lodi dynasty, and it later became a significant center during the Sikh Empire under Maharaja Ranjit Singh. Today, it blends its rich past with rapid urbanization, featuring landmarks like the historic Lodhi Fort and the modern Punjab Agricultural University.

Delhi

Delhi, the capital of India, is a historic city that has been continuously inhabited for over two millennia, serving as the seat of power for several ancient and medieval empires, including the Delhi Sultanate and the Mughal Empire. Its rich history is reflected in iconic landmarks such as the Red Fort, Qutub Minar, and Humayun’s Tomb, which showcase a blend of architectural styles. Today, Delhi is a bustling metropolis that seamlessly merges its ancient heritage with modern urban life.

West Vihar

West Vihar is likely a reference to the Western Viharas, a group of ancient Buddhist monastic caves located in the Ellora Caves complex in Maharashtra, India. Dating from around 500–700 CE, these rock-cut caves served as monasteries for Buddhist monks, featuring prayer halls and living quarters. They represent an important phase of early Indian rock-cut architecture and Buddhist monastic life.

Gandhi Brothers

The Gandhi Brothers, also known as the Gandhi family, refers to the prominent Indian political dynasty led by Mahatma Gandhi’s sons, particularly Harilal, Manilal, Ramdas, and Devdas Gandhi. While less widely known than their father, they played roles in India’s independence movement, with Manilal notably continuing his father’s activism in South Africa. The term can also refer to the political lineage of Jawaharlal Nehru’s family, including Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi, who were not blood relatives of Mahatma Gandhi but adopted the surname through marriage.

Ghanta Ghar

Ghanta Ghar, meaning “Clock Tower,” is a prominent landmark in several South Asian cities, most notably in Multan, Pakistan, and the Chowk area of Lahore. Built during the British colonial era in the late 19th century, these towers often served as municipal buildings or markets and symbolized Victorian architectural influence. Today, Ghanta Ghar remains a bustling cultural hub and a reminder of the region’s colonial past.

Punjab

Punjab is a region spanning parts of northern India and eastern Pakistan, known as the “Land of Five Rivers” (the Beas, Chenab, Jhelum, Ravi, and Sutlej). Its history is rich and ancient, serving as the cradle of the Indus Valley Civilization and the birthplace of Sikhism, where the Golden Temple in Amritsar stands as its holiest site. The region has witnessed numerous empires and the tragic 1947 Partition, which divided it between India and Pakistan, shaping its vibrant but complex cultural identity.
