ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan on Friday announced to honour Constable Jamal Kalhoro on Pakistan Day, 23rd March, for dedication to duty.
In a tweet, he said, “We have decided to honour Constable Jamal Kalhoro on Pakistan Day, 23rd March, for dedication to duty.”
“If anyone saves a life, it shall be as though he had saved the lives of all mankind,” he quoted a verse from Surah Al-Maidah.
A day earlier, the prime minister had shared a video of a young policeman and praised him
for his commitment to service and action for saving the life of a person, who had fallen while trying to board a moving train.
In the video, a man appears to fall from an overcrowded train into the gap between the carriage and the platform. The policeman rushes to his aid without an ounce of hesitation and drags him to safety.
The premier said this is where duty becomes sacred and praised the commitment of the
young policeman to serve the people.
Earlier in June, the premier had met Islamabad Traffic Police Head Constable Qaiser Shakeel and praised his “conscientiousness” in performing his duty despite being injured.
