Snigdharaag Bhuyan, a 4-month old baby, suffering from acute pneumonia and on ventilation in a Guwahati Nursing Home, had to be rushed to Gangaram Hospital in New Delhi for advanced treatment. He had to be taken to the airport, without losing any time, from the nursing home for further transshipment in an air ambulance.
Guwahati police aided in providing the green corridor through the busy roads on Sunday morning at around 10.30. City police commissioner Hiren Nath accompanied the infant in the ambulance from the nursing home to the airport. The drive, which usually takes around 90 minutes, was completed in less than half an hour.
SSP (Traffic) Amanjeet Kaur personally supervised the facilitation.
Arrangements were also made in New Delhi for rapid movement from airport to Gangaram Hospital.
The family of the baby who hails from Bishwanath Charilai in Assam, has called for help from benevolent people at the time of their crisis through social media. Assam government has also come forward to help.
