A 50-year-old man in Indore has reportedly amassed property worth several lakh rupees by seeking alms, news agency PTI reported. However, the episode took an unexpected turn when a close relative of the beggar dismissed the administration's claim as false, saying they had some "misunderstanding".

The man was discovered by officials in Indore during an anti-beggary drive. They were stunned to find the man who pushes himself on a wheeled board, seeking alms, also silently lends lakhs in the famed bullion market, the report said.

As per the report, Women and Child Development Department official Dinesh Mishra said a leprosy patient was rescued from the Sarafa area following information from local residents.
