If a person desires to achieve something, he will find a way to accomplish it, even if things make it hard to do. As the saying goes, where there is a will, there is a way. One such video of a specially-abled Zomato representative proves that right.

The 37-year-old man, recognised as Ganesh Murugan from Chennai, was a Zomato delivery representative. Twitter user and IPS officer Dipanshu Kabra posted Ganesh Murugan's story last month. The man was said to be India's first wheelchair food delivery agent. A start-up developed Ganesh's motorised vehicle at IIT Madras for effortless transportation. The two-wheeler can be detached at a switch, and the rear part turns into a simple wheelchair.

Recently, IAS Officer Sonal Goel shared a video on Twitter showing a specially-abled person running a streetside stall in Mumbai's Malad.

In the video, the man identified as Mitesh Gupta can be seen chopping vegetables with one hand and making a pav bhaji after losing a hand in a tragic accident. The food vendor's strong will pushed him to work hard to earn his bread. Watch the video.
