Hyderabad, November 2: Signifying a role of safety and security of the people, the police in the country have set an example for millions slating an inspiration. With the unseasonal rain creating chaos, a traffic inspector Nagamallu, in Hyderabad took a social responsibility and diverted water from a waterlogged area to make way for the commuters and vehicles, while being on duty.

 

Interestingly, this Hyderabadi cop has also earned a reputation as the 'singing cop'. Nagamallu is known for singing his way into hearts by spreading awareness among people on traffic issues. The traffic inspector is deployed at LB Nagar police station.

It happened so, on October 30, at around 8 am he witnessed a few commuters facing difficulty while making their way through the waterlogged area. He took the entire responsibility to clear the water while being on duty and set an example of a true 'public servant'. Nagamallu said, “I saw two people who got injured while making their way through the waterlogged area. They slipped in the muddy water while wading through that area. I thought of calling GHMC workers but then I realised that it might take at least one hour for them to reach here as LB Nagar is a heavy traffic area.”

He added, “I thought instead of calling them I should take the responsibility and clear the water. It took me almost 20 minutes to clear it. I believe that instead of getting dependent on others if we start taking the social we can contribute to our country's development.”

The video of the incident went viral, where the cop was seen standing amid the waterlogged area with his pants folded up to the knees, while he diverted the water and helped the commuters and traffic to move with ease.
