Impressed by gutsy Delhi man with disabilities, industrialist Anand Mahindra offers him a job

<p>
<strong>In December last year the video of one Birju Ram, who has no arms and legs but yet had been driving a modified vehicle for the last five years in the National Capital went viral on social media. Replying to a question by an inquisitive passer-by, he revealed:  "I have a wife, two small children and an aging father… that's why I go out to earn.”</strong></p>
<p>
The video had caught the attention of the Chairman of Mahindra Group, Anand Mahindra. Impressed by his grit and perseverance, Mahindra asked people for help in finding out about this man. He had said he wanted to employ him with the Group's electric last-mile delivery service.</p>
