The police recruits found out that an elderly hawker’s bicycle was stolen and plotted an action plan to help him. By raising money, the trainee law enforcement officials bought him a brand new cycle and also posed with the man for selfies.
Rahul Srivastav, the public relations officer for the director general of police in UP shared the heartwarming story on Twitter. Along with the details, Srivastav shared four photos of the ecstatic young officials and the smiling hawker seated on his new cycle.
