In this Kerala village, an over-100 voter claims to have voted in every election in the state

He is not sure of his birth date but believes he is around 115 years old. His family members and booth officials vouch for him being well over 100, but no one is sure by what stretch.

Raghavan of Peringala in Chengannur is definitely one of the oldest voters to grace the polling booths in Kerala. He claims to have exercised his franchise in every single election held in the state. If so, this would be the 15th Assembly election he is voting in.

He grins and says that he has seen it all: governments come and go, changes in voting methods and much more.

Accompanied by relatives, Raghavan was visibly glad to have been able to cast his vote one more time, thus ensuring his own say in Indian democracy.
