He travelled from Jaipur to a polling booth in his village on a cycle to cast his vote Monday.

"This was just to create awareness for polling and good health. It took me four hours to reach my village," Sharma said.

The doctor also advised people to do cycling for good health.

"I do cycling every Sunday as it is good for heart," he added.
