What a noble gesture from Mumbai Police! Kudos to you. I wish n pray someday this boy grows up to be healthy young man and he becomes a police station incharge not for one day but for many years. That is my wish to this young brave boy. God bless him and cure him asap. — Tina (@iyertina) March 23, 2018
