A cop wears a corona-themed helmet to spread awareness about the pandemic
Not All Heroes Wear Capes
Sudhir Deharia sits on a ledge outside his home, sipping tea. His family interacts with him from the gate. It looks like a rather odd photo until you spot his surgical cap—Deharia is Bhopal district’s chief medical and health officer. This scene was from March 30, when he met his family after a gap of five days, working non-stop in the battle against COVID-19. After finishing the tea, he returned to the hospital! There were no raucous pots and pans in store for Deharia, but the MP chief minister tweeted glowing praise for him. Like Deharia, Digvijay Sharma also heeded the call of duty in exemplary fashion. The 22-year-old constable was on leave until March 23 to appear for exams at Etawah. But not only did the exams get postponsed due to the shutdown, he could also not find transport to return to his police station, Rajgarh. Regardless, he set out and walked for nearly 20 hours during the 450-km journey.
