Chandigarh, Sep 3
A woman suffering from a cardiac ailment was successfully rescued by a flood relief team of Kharga Sappers from the flood-affected village of Sammoval near Ajnala in Punjab's Amritsar district, the Army said on Wednesday.
Due to her medical condition, she was unable to move, making the rescue operation particularly challenging.
As access to her residence by boat was not possible due to flooding, the team proceeded on foot.
Upon reaching the location, the team found the woman bedridden and immobile. Demonstrating exceptional courage and compassion, the team carefully evacuated her along with her bed, carrying her on their shoulders for approximately 300 meters to the waiting boat.
