Recovered cops to donate plasma for infected patients

Ludhiana: After defeating Covid-19, these cops are ready to become life saviours. Eighteen cops, including two women SHOs and DCP (law & order), will donate their plasmas to Covid-19 patients to help them fight off the disease.
To date, over 118 cops of Ludhiana commissionerate have tested positive and one of them, assistant commissioner of police Anil Kohli, lost his life to the virus. Kohli was to be given plasma therapy, but he succumbed before that.
Deputy commissioner of police (law & order) Ashwani Kapur said, “I have recovered from the disease. I am looking forward to be a part of this noble cause as plasma therapy can be a life saviour. More people should come forward and join the cause. We must fight Covid-19 together. Citizens should take all precautions to stop its spread.”
Joint commissioner of police (headquarters) J Elanchezian said, “DCP Ashwani Kapur, Jodhewal police station SHO sub-inspector Arshpreet Kaur Grewal, Moti Nagar police station SHO sub-inspector Simranjeet Kaur and 15 other cops are going to donate plasmas for Covid-19 patients.”
Simranjeet Kaur, 26, who had contracted the virus on June 21 said, “I have always wanted to serve society which is why I chose this profession. Donating plasma is also a way of serving society. More people should come forward for this.”
Simranjeet Kaur had contracted the virus when she was deputed at Shimlapuri police station as an additional SHO. She had tested positive after an ASI of the police station got infected.
Arshpreet Kaur Grewal was the first woman cop to catch the infection on April 18. She was a contact of ACP Kohli.
Arshpreet Kaur said, “This is the smallest thing anyone can do to save lives. When I was admitted to a hospital after testing positive, I had told doctors that I would donate plasma.”
