A traffic police officer saves child life
Sunder Lal, a traffic police officer, has been praised by netizens for his quick action in saving a child’s life.
Officer Awanish Sharan of the Indian Administrative Service shared CCTV footage of the incident. It depicts a child falling from a moving three-wheeler onto the road. A private bus approaches the location, but it comes to a halt just in time, allowing Lal to cross the road and save the child. Lal quickly grabs the child and hands him over to a woman (likely the child’s mother) who was riding in the same autorickshaw with him.

“Yes,” said one user. The traffic police jawan performed admirably by risking his life to save the child, but it was the bus driver’s quick reflex action in applying the emergency brake that saved both the traffic police jawan and the child. Both the driver and the jawan deserve praise!”
“Not once did he care for his life in front of the moving bus,” another user wrote. Because of selfless people like him, humanity has survived.
Sundar Lal ji, our brave son of the soil and pride, deserves kudos! I hope that the State Government and the Police Department appropriately reward him.”
