Question

You are rushing to attend to an important work and you witness an accident on your way. Will you go to the rescue of the injured person? Share your views with the class.

Answer in Brief

Solution

There is nothing more valuable than a human life. I would suspend whatever important work I have in hand and call 108 and summon the ambulance. I will try to get the contact number. of the next of kin of the injured person if he/she is conscious. I will inform them the incident without causing panic. I will accompany the injured person to the hospital. In our NSS team, we have blood donors WhatsApp group. I will find out if blood is required and inform my blood donor group to ensure blood donation to the injured person. Only after the doctor confirms that the injured person is out of danger, I will leave the place.

I draw my inspiration to help people in distress from the life of Abraham Lincoln. He was a budding lawyer. He had to walk for 2 hours to reach the court. On his way, he found a pig sinking in the mud and grunting in agony. It was scared that it would die. Abraham Lincoln was on his only best dress. He just got into the mud, lifted the pig, and left him safely on the hard surface. As he reached the court everyone laughed at his dirty coat but Abraham Lincoln just smiled and argued well in favor of his innocent client and got him acquitted too.
