A CISF jawan who saved the life of a 23-year-old woman, who was attempting suicide at a Delhi Metro station in Faridabad recently, has been honoured with a cash reward and commendation letter by the force's director general (DG) on Monday. Constable Nandlal Ram was monitoring CCTV footage at the Sector 28 station in Faridabad on the evening of July 24 when he was alerted by the visuals of a woman dangerously sneaking through the parapet wall of the 40-feet high platform on to the narrow ledge exposed towards the road below. Amateur social media videos of that day showed the woman sitting on the ledge with her legs dangling towards the road. "The lady seemed to be on the verge of trying to jump on the road in an obvious suicide attempt," a spokesperson for the paramilitary force said.
