As the nation is under lockdown until May 3 and police personnel are on the frontline of the battle against coronavirus pandemic, a picture of two cops sleeping on the ground after duty has taken the internet by storm.
On April 42, IPS officer Madhur Verma shared that picture and applauded the two police officers for working hard during such unprecedented times. Verma, who is Arunachal Pradesh's Deputy Inspector General of Police, also called the cops ‘Corona Warriors’.
While sharing the image, Verma lauded the cops for their dedication. He said that eight hours of sleep on a comfortable bed is surely a luxury when one is a police officer. In the image, one can see the two cops sleeping on the floor with their lathis and helmets beside them.
Isn’t comfortable bed and an eight hour sleep such a luxury ?

And after the brief 40 winks, back to work with a smile. Seeing these boys resting in the battle trenches makes me proud that I too once wore the khakhis of the police force.
