In Malappuram, a Kerala State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) bus turned into a makeshift ambulance, rushing to a hospital to get timely medical help for a five-year-old boy who had a seizure during the journey.
Locals and hospital staff at a private hospital in Tanur Moolakkal were first left confused and then amazed. They saw a KSRTC bus, with its lights flashing and horn blaring, speeding into the hospital premises with all its passengers. The reason for the emergency soon became clear. Thanks to this quick thinking, five-year-old Ihsan, son of Sadiq and Irfana from Chavakkad Akalad, was saved.
