GREAT LIVES : AMIT RAJ


              Cadet Amit Raj of 
           Sainik School, Purulia

We all know that Kareena Kapoor is expecting a second child. 
We know that Anushka Sharma is expecting her first child. 
We also know which actor wears which designer clothes.

But do we care to know who was Cadet Amit Raj?

We don’t.
I don't completely blame you for this. 
We all waste our news appetite on junk news which never adds any value to our society.

On 7th of Dec, Cadet Amit Raj of Sainik School Purulia, was at his hometown in Bihar when he heard people shouting in the neighborhood. He stepped out to see that a neighboring house was on fire. Without thinking twice he entered the house to save 3 children who were trapped inside. He sustained 85% burns by the time he saved the first two children but still decided to save the third one. He was in no condition to save the third child but still entered the house to save the third in lieu if receiving 95% burns himself. He was admitted to a nearby hospital and was later sifted to Delhi. The braveheart lost his life on 13 December. 

Not even single media house covered this story. Such a shame. Even Google will not throw much information about this incident.

Let us individually honour these souls by using the power of social media. Because only this will help us imbibe the values of sacrifice that can build a #New_India.
