Heroes in Khaki: When Police Officials Rushed to Help Going Beyond the Call of Duty

Recently, two incidents involving police officials have caught the eyes of netizens, as both went viral. In UP, policemen got a Zomato delivery guy a new bike, while in MP, a police officer helped in the marriage of an orphan girl. In both the cases, police officers stepped out of their official shoes to help common people, sending a very strong positive message to the public. A report by Neha Nimisha

Of late, police officials across the country have been in news for going beyond the call of duty to extend a helping hand to people around them. Two officers have especially been making news with their philanthropic overtures, which have gone viral, with netizens praising their thoughtful gestures as well as their sensitivity.

FROM INDORE, MADHYA PRADESH

A Zomato delivery guy in Indore was pleasantly surprised when policemen came to his rescue in a different way. They didn’t rescue him from criminals or accident but saved him from his daily gruelling tasks of delivering food packets on his bicycle in the sweltering heat. This they did by buying him a brand new motorcycle to ease his work.

It so happened that Vijay Nagar Police Station-in-Charge Tehzeeb Qazi and his team saw Jay Halde, a 22-year-old Zomato delivery guy, delivering food parcels drenched in sweat while riding his bicycle. They felt sorry for him, especially as this summer has been cruel with the temperature rising much above the normal levels in the country. So they decided to contribute money to get him a motorcycle.

As soon as the gesture and photos of the smiling Zomato guy with his new bike went viral, Mr. Qazi told media what made them do it. “After talking to the guy, we learned he had some financial issues and couldn’t afford a bike. So, we decided to buy him one.”

Mr. Qazi and his team pulled in enough money to make an initial payment at an automobile showroom and got a motorcycle for the guy.

Touched by this gesture, Zomato guy Halde thanked the policemen profusely and said, “Earlier I used to deliver 6-8 food parcels, but now I’m able to deliver 15-20 food parcels in a day moving around with the bike.”

FROM DEORIA, UTTAR PRADESH 

Another similar story came out from Deoria, Uttar Pradesh, where a SHO became a blessing in disguise while he was on a duty call to check loudspeakers in a locality. SHO Bariyarpur Police Station Ashutosh was visiting the area to check for loudspeakers. During the round, he reached Lahilpar temple with his team where a couple was getting married.

They came to know that the girl’s parents are not there and her maternal uncle and aunt, who themsleves are very poor, are getting her married. Hence, the ceremony was kept very simple and basic. Moved by the scene in front of him, the SHO thought of helping them in some way. He immediately ordered for a fridge, fan and mixer from the market and presented those to the bride and groom and blessed them.

Along with this, the SHO also requested the priest of the temple to waive off the expenses of the marriage, which the priest happily agreed to do.

Talking about the incident, the officer said that while he was on a routine round in the area to check loudspeakers, he came across this wedding in a small temple of the locality. The uncle and aunt of the girl had organised the marriage in the absence of her parents, who had passed away. He was moved by the scene before him and decided to step in and help them somehow. So, he bought the couple gifts – a fridge, fan and a mixer – that will help them set up their new life. This was his blessings to the bride and groom, and he returned back to duty happily knowing that he had done his good deed for the day.

These are not the first times, there have been many other such instances in the past when police officials have rose to the occasion and gave people a glimpse of their compassion and empathy. When they have gone out of their way, beyond the call of duty, to help people. Such stories touch a cord in people’s hearts and go a long way in building and fostering a relationship of trust between the public and the police.
