I have never considered myself as a brave person. 6th of April has dawned other day. As usual, I got ready for my school, have my breakfast and got out of the house. I have walked about a few hundred yards when two young guys started following me.

I tried to walk fast thinking that this way I would be able to lose them. They persisted and kept following me. I looked around that some one come to my aid.

Meanwhile they had started passing bad comments. Before I would think of suitable replay one of them snatched at my bag. I held on to it and jerk the bag from him. This action caused him to lose balance and fall of the cycle. He fell right in front of me. I was so angry that I began to kick him. His partner tries to physically stop me. I began to scramming and struggling. My hue and cry was heard by passing constable. He came to my rescue and arrested the eve-teasers.

I was taken to the police commissioner’s office. There were a few crime reports present there. They photographed me. I have walked about a few hundred yards when two young guys started following me. I tried to walk fast thinking that this way I would be able to lose them. I was praised by the Police Commissioner. I then went home. I saw my photo published in newspaper. After reading the account that was published in the newspaper, I came to know that the police had recommended as a gallantry award.
