NEW DELHI: Days after a photograph of a
Hyderabad traffic police
personnel feeding a
homeless woman
went viral on social media, chief public relations officer to Telangana DGP,
Harsha Bhargavi
today said that the woman has been shifted to an old age home.
" Not just left behind... the old woman is shifted by
Cyberabad Police
to Anand Ashramam (an old age home in) Cherlapally with the help of jail authorities," Bhargavi tweeted.
Interestingly, Bhargavi's tweet praising Hyderabad traffic cop's gesture, has so far garnered over 300 retweets.
Clicked near Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University (JNTU), the picture shows the Kukatpally Traffic Police Station home guard, B Gopal, feeding the destitute woman with his own hands. The gesture by the traffic police personnel is gathering a lot of appreciation for him on
Twitter.
Gopal found the woman sitting next to the road near JNTU in Kukatpally. Moved by her pitiable condition, Gopal purchased puris and fed her as she appeared too weak even to eat on her own.
Even Cyberabad CP VC Sajjanar appreciated the kind act of the home guard on Twitter.
