A shocking incident unfolded in the tribal-dominated Harsud area of Khandwa district in Madhya Pradesh. A young man, riding his bike, experienced a terrifying turn of events. In the stillness of the night, surrounded by the darkness and silence of the forest, a speeding vehicle suddenly struck him. The impact was so severe that he was thrown from his bike, landing in the dense forest bordering the road.
The man lay unconscious throughout the night. Injured and disoriented, he struggled until morning to regain his senses. As the first rays of dawn broke, he managed to find his phone and call the police. His voice, filled with fear and pain, could only utter the words, “Save me, I will die,” before the call disconnected.
The Dial 100 team was immediately activated. The police swiftly deployed their cyber team, who used advanced technology to trace the location of his mobile phone. Within moments, they found out that he was trapped in the dense Harsud forest. Without hesitation, a police team was dispatched to the scene.
Police vehicles and officers searched for a way through the dense undergrowth. Their persistence paid off when they finally located the young man lying injured on the ground. He was immediately transported to the Harsud Community Health Centre, where doctors were able to save his life.
The young man, identified as a truck driver, had been missing all night, causing his family great distress as their calls went unanswered. Overwhelmed with relief, they expressed their sincere gratitude to the police upon learning that their son’s life had been saved due to their swift action. This incident served as a powerful testament to the life-saving potential of prompt police response and the effective utilisation of technology.
