Apart from fight against the rising cases of Coronavirus in the city, Mumbai Police faced another challenge with Cyclone Nisarga on Wednesday.

Mumbai Police has been relentlessly working to keep people safe, be it in the last couple of months during the lockdown imposed in view of the Coronavirus outbreak or for taking precautionary measures amid the threat of the cyclone that loomed over the city for past two days. Therefore, to show their gratitude, the police department shared a video thanking Mumbaikars, appreciating them for following the rules and regulations amid such a turbulent time.

Though they are well trained, that they can challenge anything. It's not that easy to accept the challenge when in such situational crisis, cos, they too live a normal life like us. But, when time comes in front of them, they stand straight to accept the challenge! Hats off !
