Bimla Devi, a laborer's wife from Kotkapura in Punjab's Faridkot district, just turned a ₹7 lottery ticket into a massive ₹1 crore win.

She picked up the ticket near the railway station a day before the Sikkim government announced the results.

This unexpected jackpot is likely to improve her family's financial situation.
