NEW DELHI: In a fascinating occurrence of policemen risking their lives to save a teenager from the jaws of certain death, three policemen displayed commendable presence of mind and courage to rescue a teenager who was on the verge of drowning in quicksand on the Yamuna banks in Wazirabad on Tuesday evening.

The team of three policemen comprises assistant sub-inspector Rambir, head constable Prem Chand and constable Rohit. They carried out a dramatic operation using bamboos to reach and rescue the youngster. The boy is under observation in AIIMS Trauma Center and has not given police his statement yet.

Narrating the incident, Addl DCP Satveer Katara said that they received a call around 7.10 pm about a boy drowning in the Yamuna near Wazirabad Chhatth puja ghat. When the PCR van reached the spot, they did not spot anyone at first sight. After a search, however, they found a 'head-like object' in the marshy land in the ghat area at some distance. A closer look showed it to be the head of a boy neck-deep in the quicksand. But they could not help him right away as there was a risk of them meeting the same fate.

There was also no time to ask for fire tenders or reinforcement as rough calculations indicated he would drown any moment. The men began to look around for help and spotted a Chhatth pandal made of bamboos nearby.

"The three took a quick decision and began to collect bamboos from the nearby puja marquee one by one. They made a platform of these in order to reach the drowning boy. One of them took great risk and walked on the bamboos and with great difficulty caught hold of the neck of the boy. He pulled him out and he was found to have fainted. The staff rushed him to a nearby hospital and his life was saved," Katara said.

Katara said that the men will be suitably rewarded for their zeal to save a life without caring for their own. "They have set a precedent in the organization," he said.
