For most people, journalism sounds hectic and chaotic. For her, it's a passion she has been chasing for years. With an extensive media background, Tashafi believes in putting efforts on presenting a simple incident in the most interesting way.
The touching incident was widely shared across social media with people lauding the two female cops for their swift action and humanitarian gesture.
In a heartwarming incident, two lady cops on Thursday, August 5, helped a pregnant woman to deliver her baby safely inside an autorickshaw that was stuck on a flooded road in Suthalia town of Madhya Pradesh's Rajgarh district, an officer said, according to The New Indian Express.
Sub-inspector Arundhati Rajawat and constable Itishree Rathore found that the woman in the autorickshaw was experiencing severe labour pain and needed immediate attention, as the three-wheeler was not able to move due to water-logging on the road caused by a heavy downpour.
The duo called a nurse immediately upon realising that the lady will not be able to make it to the hospital in time for medical help. The nurse rushed to the spot along with the two policewomen, an official said.
He further added that the police officers and the nurse helped the woman deliver the baby boy safely in the vehicle.
After the water level on the road receded, the woman with her newborn was shifted to a community health centre for treatment and care, where both are said to be stable.
The heartening incident was widely shared across social media with people lauding the female cops for their swift action and humanitarian gesture.
