[www.keralites.net] 14-year-old Gunjan Sarmah volunteered to be kidnapped in order to save the lives of 10 other kids from their school van at Simaluguri in Sivasagar district of Assam on Wednesday

 

In a rare act of bravery, 14-year-old Gunjan Sarmah volunteered to be kidnapped in order to save the lives of 10 other kids from their school van at Simaluguri in Sivasagar district of Assam on Wednesday.
The unidentified gunman had hijacked the entire van with 11 kids of Nazira Kendriya Vidyalaya from the heart of Simaluguri town in Sivasagar district on Wednesday when they were returning home.

 The driver, who displayed presence of mind, immobilized the van after driving it into a drain in the Chantak tea estate to save the kids. The kidnapper, who threatened all the kids to follow him and picked up one, was approached by Gunjan who asked him to leave him and take her instead.

"The kidnapper picked up a small girl in the school van who started crying. I volunteered to be kidnapped instead. He clutched my hand and ran with me towards the forests," Gunjan told reporters at her home in Simaluguri.

Chief minister Tarun Gogoi announced a reward of Rs 2 lakh for Gunjan for her bravery.

I think She demands nothing from us but some respect and a little bit recognition. So Please LIKE SHARE with Inspiring Young India also in the link below.
