A blazing cylinder could have claimed lives in Mauranipur, Jhansi, earlier this month. But a display of exemplary bravery by a cop averted this tragedy.
In a viral video posted by the Uttar Pradesh police on their official Twitter handle, Mauranipur City Police Inspector Premchand can be seen dragging a burning gas cylinder with a rope to a nearby pond.
According to Zee News, the incident occurred when a man was making tea at his home. The report states that the cylinder caught fire unexpectedly. Locals quickly alerted the police of the incident.
The cop was in a meeting at the time, but he wasted no time in rushing to the spot. Once he reached there, he tried to douse the fire with a wet blanket. But to no avail.
He then tied a rope to it and dragged it to the nearby pond. Towards the end of the video, another youth can be seen helping the cop drag it further into deep waters.
