Indian mechanic invents an air propelled scooter

Overcoming financial and mental hardships, Hari Narayan Prajapati of Bhanpur Kurdh village has invented an air propelled one-man scooter that can go 20 km per hour. Beginning his experiment on his father's eight-year-old scooter and investing about Rs.150,000, finally he succeeded in creating this breathtaking scooter.

The scooter, like regular scooters is started by a kick too, but the only difference is the wiring of the accelerator which is directly connected to the air fuel tank. On test, the scooter could cover a distance of half a kilometer with a total of 150 pounds of air in a special fuel cylinder attached to the vehicle.

Prajapati states:

If my technique is properly channelised people will certainly get relief from the regular hikes in petrol and diesel prices.

Prajapti is currently working on a special generator that can supply continuous high air pressure for his scooter. The new project requires Rs.350,000 investment for which he has not yet received any help so far.
