Indian Army doctor saves life of 27-year-old aboard Goa-Chandigarh flight
Chandigarh: Major Simrat Rajdeep Singh, a doctor from the Indian Army posted at the Western Command Hospital, Chandimandir, performed a life-saving act aboard a flight from Goa to Chandigarh recently, resuscitating a 27-year-old critically ill passenger and requesting an emergency landing in Mumbai.
The incident occurred shortly after the flight departed from Goa at 5:45 pm, when a passenger complained of severe discomfort. Major Simrat, who was traveling as a medical officer, quickly accessed the emergency medical kit and provided aid to the passenger, who was suffering from a respiratory issue.
Also recognizing the need for further medical attention immediately, Major Simrat requested the pilot to make an emergency landing. The pilot coordinated with the local air traffic control and the flight landed safely at the Mumbai airport.
After the medical emergency was addressed, the flight resumed its journey and landed at Chandigarh airport at around 10:30 pm.
