The boy (Om Prakash Yadav) , a Class VII
student and the son of a Uttar Pradesh
farmer, pulled out several of his friends
alive out of a burning van, caring little
about his own safety.
On September 4, 2010, Om Prakash was
going to school along with other students
in a Maruti van. But all of a sudden, the
van caught fire because of a short circuit
in the gas kit.
The driver immediately opened his door
and fled. But not Om Prakash.
He broke open the van door and pulled
out the others, caring little about the
flames that had spread to his face, back
and arms.
He saved eight children. For his bravery,
he has won the Sanjay Chopra Award.
Bravo , Om Prakash , you are an
inspiration to millions with your brave
act.
