Nagpur: Often criticized for their handling of crime, Nagpur Police displayed a compassionate side when they turned into guardians for a 10-year-old boy, making his birthday an unforgettable celebration.
Sanchit Arvind Narad, a resident of Wathoda, left home on Thursday around 11 a.m. without informing his family. The police later discovered that the child was upset because his birthday had gone uncelebrated. His worried parents initially searched the neighbourhood but, unable to find him, rushed to Wathoda Police Station around 4 p.m. to report him missing.
