Memorable Eid for Idar’s Mastan

Palanpur: It was the most memorable Eid for 23-year-old Amir Khan Pathan when Idar police fulfilled his “wish” to become a police inspector!
Amir Khan, fondly known as Mastan, is mentally challenged and was adamant on greeting cops in the Idar police station on the festive day. Mastan used to visit the police station sometimes with his father Munaf Khan Pathan, who works as a home guard.
"When we asked him, Mastan said he wanted to become a police inspector. So, we allowed him to sit on the PI's chair for a while, a moment that he thoroughly relished," said Prahladsinh Vaghela, policeinspector, Idar.
Mastan usually stays at home. Today, was a big day for him," said his father, who retires next year. Ahead of Eid, police had gifted him three pairs of new clothes. “Today, we also gave him a box of laddoos,” added Vaghela.
