Khursheed Ahmad, a head constable in CRPF, can barely move. He was in the the ICU for the past 2 months and is still admitted in the emergency ward of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences in Delhi. He was hit with 8 bullets in a militant attack in Pampore in Kashmir. On 25 June 2016 Ahmad and other CRPF jawans were returning after conducting shooting practices in Lethpura when 4 militants suddenly opened fire on them. Eight CRPF jawans died and 22 got injured in this militant attack.
41-year-old Ahmad has been serving the nation for the past 23 years, but now his future seems bleak. The bullets might have crippled him, but haven’t shattered his courage.
Watch Khursheed’s story soon on The Quint.
