Srinagar: “The end is often a beginning”, CRPF madadgar helpline tweeted on Wednesday, putting out the good news of reunion of Arif with his father in Rajouri district of Jammu and Kashmir.
Last month Arif set out to accomplish an impossible task. A distance of 2000 kilometres didn’t deter 30-year-old Arif to cycle from Mumbai to meet his ailing father at Rajouri in J&K. An impossible task but Arif, working as watchman in Mumbai, was determined to do that, in the middle of a lockdown. Arif’s father has suffered from a brain stroke.
But as the news spread help came from an unusual quarter — CRPF madadagar helpline. The CRPF air-lifted his father to a hospital in Jammu and got in touch with Arif to put him on a bus for his onward journey to meet with his father in Chandigarh.
Arif’s father needed advanced treatment at the PGI Chandigarh which was made possible with the help of CRPF. He has recovered and has been discharged from the hospital. Now the father and son are back home in Rajouri, thanks to the help by the CRPF.
