He has been saving the coins of Rs 1, Rs 2, Rs 5 and Rs 10 since 2014.
"I collected the coins since 2014. Finally, my dream has been fulfilled. 10 years ago, I thought that I will buy a motorcycle or scooty. When my collection has amounted to Rs 1.5 lakh, I decided to buy a scooty by using a portion of my collection. I am now very happy," Mr Upen said.
