Delhi doctors bring out 11 pins from Bundi man’s body, 60 still inside
The Jaipur traffic police have become the talk of Twitter, courtesy a tweet that along with bringing one’s attention towards the importance of road safety rules have also left the twitterati in splits.
On June 19, the official account of the Jaipur police tweeted a photo and wrote a couple of lines on the significance of not going past zebra crossings at the time of red light.
It was a collage of two photos. One of the photos showed cars waiting to get past a zebra crossing while the other had Indian cricketer Jasprit Bumrah bowling a no ball in the ICC champion’s trophy final in which he got Pakistani batsman Fakhar Zaman out caught behind. A witty caption accompanied the photo, “Don’t cross the line. You know it can be costly.” The tweet referred to the fact that after Zaman got another lifeline courtesy of the no ball, it proved a turning point for the match and disastrous for India as he went on to score a century and helped Pakistan score over 300 runs.
At the end, Zaman’s effort helped Pakistan defeat India by 180 runs and lift the trophy. The tweet by the Jaipur traffic police became instantly viral and has over 400 retweets and favourites.
The Twitter world seemed to be absolutely impressed by the ingenuity behind this idea of spreading awareness about road safety in a hilarious way and heaped praises on the cops.
In recent times, the Jaipur police have been effectively using the social media to spread awareness about road safety rules.
Doctors of a Delhi hospital have extracted 11 pins from the body of a man from Bundi district though 60 more still remain in his body parts.
Badrilal (56), a railway employee from Barda village in Talera region, was detected with 71 pins two months ago when he underwent an X-ray in Bundi.
He was admitted to the railway hospital in Kota, which referred him to the Central Hospital (Northern Railways) in New Delhi last month.
“First we extracted seven pins from the neck of the patient two weeks ago and four from the upper and lower limbs,” said Dr Sanjeev Singhal, a surgeon at the Central Hospital. The patient is a diabetic, so extracting pins from his body at one go could have led to infection, he told HT.
“Going safely, we decided to remove only those pins, which were causing pain and obstructing eating and swallowing of food.” Badrilal and doctors are clueless about how the pins entered the body. Laparoscopic surgeon Dinesh Jindal said, “Pins enter a human body when they are consumed with food items or injected through skin.”
