New Delhi, Feb 8 : A Delhi Police constable risked his life to save two senior citizens, who were trapped on the terrace of a building that caught fire in South Delhi’s Greater Kailash.

On reaching the spot, he found that the fire was on the first floor of N-170 and it was very intense and the main gate of the road leading to the Block was locked.
Constable Vikram brought a hammer from the nearby shop and broke the lock so that the fire tenders could reach the spot to douse the fire, and also using his presence of mind he cut the supply of the PNG in the house.
The crowd gathered near the spot told Constable Vikram about the presence of two senior citizen couple stranded on the terrace of the house that was on fire.
