In a commendable gesture, a Hyderabad cop ran for 2 km to make way for an ambulance carrying a critical patient amid the rush hour traffic congestion. Constable G. Babji who has been honoured by the department for his due diligence and humanity, became a role model for the entire police department after he valiantly steered the motorcades off the path from Abids GPO Junction to Andhra Bank Koti as the ambulance was in an emergency to reach the hospital as soon as it could for the treatment of the patient. The duty-bound officer made the Abids Traffic Police Station proud as he earned applauds and respect for his selfless gesture. 

“HTP officer Babji of Abids Traffic PS clearing the way for an ambulance,” IPS officer Anil Kumar wrote in a post on Twitter, sharing the video. “Well done. HTP in the service of citizens,” he added. In the nearly 2 minute clip, the cop can be seen making relentless efforts to lead the ambulance for it to make it to the medical facility without delay in the traffic. Cop’s prompt action impressed many across social media as the video went viral and people praised officer Babji's “humanity”.

Many called Babji’s gesture a morale booster as they said the kind cop helped restore faith in the police department’s commitment for the protection of the civilians. “Sincere policeman like him should be rewarded by way of promotion, as well as financial help. And should be recognized during republic day, rather than giving awards to actors and actresses,” a commenter said, hailing the cop’s actions. “Hats off he deserves a medal if not for anything but to boost the morale of such amazing policemen,” one other said.
