ABP NEWS Nov 1, 2015

On November 1, 2015,  63-year-old Syed Sajjad Ahmed finally started his long
journey towards Delhi from Bengaluru's Raj Bhavan. What makes this journey
really special is the fact that he will be undertaking the journey in a
solar powered car which was designed by him.

Syed first reacheb Bengaluru in 2000 and started woking as a fruit seller.
But this school dropout had bigger ideas and values instilled in him. He
soon started repairing TV sets and then tried his hand at developing a
motorcyle for disabled.

According to a report in Hindu, He then took four years and spent close to
Rs 10 lakh to develop electric two-wheeler, and three- wheelers for
differently abled and finally got into making a solar-powered four-wheeler
worth Rs 50,000. But with no help from the government, the vehicle cost him
Rs 1 lakh.

The solar powered vehicle weighs about 400 kilograms and runs upto a maximum
speed of 30 kmph.

The car can go upto 30 to 40 kilometers per day solely on solar power, it's
maximum range is about 100 kms with a battery pack.

Once he had his solar powered quadriped on the roads, he made it a weapon
against both pollution and corruption.

He travelled nearly 1000 km across south India in 2012 to spread the message
against corruption. He places Anna Hazare's picture on the back and an India
Against Corruption board in front of his car during this journey.

Syed, who recieved the World Environment Day Award 2006, will now travel
through Hyderabad, Bhopal, Jhansi and Agra in the 1740 KM long journey to
New Delhi.
