Sakinaka police officers with Lata Singh

It was a busy Thursday for sub-inspector Neelesh Bhalerao at Sakinaka police station. Around 4 pm, a woman in her 70s tottered in, seeking help from the police - a maid in a hospital in Sakinaka, she had been rendered jobless and homeless after the civic body demolished the hospital. Having no kith or kin, she had come to the men in khaki full of hope.
