On 11.11.2021, while the celebrations of Chatt Puja were going on, a precious life was saved due to the alacrity of Probationary Sub Inspector Pradip Diyali.
One lady, Smt Asha Malik( 60 yrs), was offering her prayers in a temple in Porajhar, Gatebazaar under NJP PS. Accidentally, her saree caught fire from an earthen lamp (diya). The fire started spreading quickly and the hapless woman started running helter skelter in panic, pain and agony. PSI Diyali, who was about to move on his motorbike to a different location on a round, heared her hue & cry for help. He threw his bike and rushed to help her. With his on duty jacket and bare hands, he doused her fire. In the process he even suffered minor burns in his own hand. Smt Malik was saved with minor burns.
Due to the courage and presence of mind of PSI Diyali, a major trajedy could be averted for Smt Mallick.
Today, CP Siliguri, Sh Gaurav Sharma recognised this good, humane work done by PSI Diyali and praised his courage.
Siliguri Metropolitan Police is proud of officers like PSI Diyali who come forward to help the citizens even at the cost of their own life and safety.
