The next time you think of an excuse to not cast your<a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=vote&amp;sortorder=effectivedate"> vote</a>, take a leaf out of 25-year-old <keyword id="3364994" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Abdu-Samad-P-N-C">Abdu Samad P N C</keyword> of Muzhangaloor in the Malappuram district of <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=kerala&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Kerala</a> who votes with his feet, after losing both of his arms to an accident. 
 
A student of MA Sociology, Abdu had his hands amputated at the age of 11 after they were nearly electrocuted. 
 But, that didn’t stop him from doing his duty of <keyword id="43546" type="EVENT" weightage="100" keywordseo="Voting">voting</keyword>. That’s not all- he has also not missed any <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=elections&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">elections</a> in the last seven years, right from the day he attained the minimum age for voting. 
 
"I think you have no excuse to skip voting. Those who say that they would not vote are either busy or disillusioned with politics, or the candidates fail to excite them. What they don't understand is that vote is the only way to change it all," Abdu told reporters explaining why he doesn’t let a physical disability stop him from casting his vote. 
 
While for most of us, casting a vote is as simple as pressing a button, however for Abdu it’s not that easy. 
 
He is required to stand on one leg while using the other to press the button on the voting machine. 
 
The indelible ink is put on the second toe of his left leg as he doesn’t have fingers. He also signs the register with his leg.
