On Wednesday, former Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan shared a moving video on Twitter. The video shows police officer Shraddha Shukla gifting new clothes and a pair of slippers to an elderly woman. Ms Shukla, who is in charge of the Magron police station in Madhya Pradesh's Damoh district, is seen helping the elderly woman put on the clothes in the short clip.
On receiving the clothes, the woman is moved to tears. Ms Shukla is heard trying to console her as she says that she was abandoned.
Sharing the viral clip on Twitter, Shivraj Singh Chouhan praised the police officer.
"Shraddha Shukla jaisi betiyon par Madhya Pradesh ko garv hai (Madhya Pradesh is proud of daughters like Shraddha Shukla)," he wrote. Watch the video below:
दमोह जिले की मगरोन थाना प्रभारी श्रद्धा शुक्ला जैसी बेटियों पर मध्यप्रदेश को गर्व है। बेटियां सबके दु:ख को समझती हैं वे हर घर का उजाला हैं। इन्हीं से सृष्टि धन्य हुई है। यही तो इस संसार को खुशियों से समृद्ध करेंगी। बेटी श्रद्धा को स्नेह, आशीर्वाद, शुभकामनाएं! pic.twitter.com/yGtdVnP5iG
