According to The Times of India, the constable, who was originally on leave, was called back to duty after the tragic stampede at New Delhi Railway Station that resulted in 18 deaths.
Reena’s husband, a CRPF constable, is currently stationed in Jammu and Kashmir, according to the report. With no living in-laws to assist, she has no choice but to bring her child to work while searching for a caregiver.
“It’s just part of my daily routine. I make sure the baby stays safe,” Reena explained. “I’m looking for someone to help, but until I find a caregiver, I’ll keep doing what needs to be done.”
