Bengaluru, March 15: Obliging the last wish respectfully has been the practice in society since time immemorial. Especially people suffering from chronic diseases gain sympathy when it comes to their last wish. Whatever be the other attributions towards the police department, still it has a humane look in case of kids suffering from chronic diseases like cancer.
It was a dream come true for 13-year-old Mohsina Raja, who was fighting cancer and always wanted to become a police officer. With the help of the Bengaluru city police, the young boy fulfilled his ambition of donning the hat of a police officer as he was given charge of a police station for one day. The officials of Arita Relief Institute and Kidwai Hospital, where the kid was undergoing cancer treatment, came together to give wings to the ambitions of the young boy.
Mohsina Raja, while growing up, dreamt of becoming a police officer. As Bengaluru South DCP, Shiv Prakash was informed about the same, he immediately called the kid to the police station, allowing him to sit on his desk. Not only this, he also gave a brief about law and order to Mohsina Raja.
The Bengaluru Police, on its X handle, shared a post that read, “Today, Master Mohsina Raja’s wish comes true as he steps into the world of law enforcement as a police officer for a day! Bengaluru City Police proudly partners with Parihar and Kidwai Memorial Institute of Oncology to make dreams a reality for pediatric cancer warriors. Together, we’re spreading smiles and positivity.”
Another kid suffering from cancer Mallikarjun, 10, was made Deputy Commissioner of Police (Bengaluru North) for a day. Saidulu Adavath, acting DCP (Bengaluru North) handed over the charge to Mallikarjun as a part of an initiative launched by the Bengaluru Police in collaboration with Kidwai Memorial Institute of Oncology to help fulfil the dreams of paediatric cancer patients to become police officers.
