UP Police constable helps elderly woman cast vote by carrying her to the polling station

The UP Police captioned their video in Hindi, which roughly translated to, “Gun on shoulder and mother in lap. That’s why we take pride in khaki uniforms.  In Gorakhpur district, constable Pawan Kumar has played the role of a true watchdog of democracy by helping an elderly woman at the polling place in Badhalganj police station. Proud of you Pawan! #UPPCares”.

So far the video has been viewed more than 17,500 times ever since it was posted on Thursday, March 3, 2022. Appreciating this gesture, a Twitter user commented, “Very proud of you UP Police, as always you have proved to all of us how to serve our motherland and help citizens”.

कंधे पर बंदूक़ और गोद में माँ है
इसीलिए ख़ाकी पर इतना गुमाँ है
