Age is just a number, says a family member of 111-year-old Bachan Singh, the oldest voter in Delhi, who carried a youthful enthusiasm into the polling station in New Delhi’s Tilak Vihar on Sunday, 12 May, the sixth phase of the Lok Sabha elections.
Till the last Assembly elections, in 2015, the centenarian had cycled to the polling booth to cast his vote. This time, he reached the booth in a car along with poll officers, in full media glare.
