Anjali, a 27-year-old sub-inspector, noticed a man in his 40s collapsing behind her in the crowded train. Acting swiftly, she administered CPR, reviving the man who had likely suffered a cardiac issue. The passenger was then taken off the train at the Moti Nagar station for further medical attention.
The CRPF DG praised Anjali’s extraordinary heroism and presented her with a DG’s commendation disc and a commendation letter, recognizing her selfless act as a testament to the unwavering spirit of those in uniform, said CRPF Deputy Inspector General (DIG) M Dhinakaran.
Anjali, a member of the 88th Mahila battalion who joined the CRPF in 2022, demonstrated the importance of CPR, an emergency life-saving procedure that security forces personnel are trained to perform during their training.
