Nineteen-year-old conjoined twins Saba and Farah cast their ballot on Wednesday in the Bihar Assembly elections – on a single voter identity card.
“Conjoined twins Saba and Farah have cast their vote at a polling booth near their residence at Samanpura locality in Patna,” an official of the state Election Commission said. Saba and Farah live with their parents. After casting their vote on a single voter identity card, Saba and Farah said they have decided to use their right to elect the right government.
“We have voted as per our willingness to take part in formation of the next government,” they said. Three months ago, Chief Minister Nitish Kumar had issued a direction to the authorities concerned to increase the twins’ monthly grant to Rs 20,000 from Rs 5,000 after they met him at his weekly janata darbar and submitted a petition.
