“I knew there was no way the parents could do anything immediately. They were distraught at the girl's condition. We drove to the nearest hospital and the doctor said that the child's condition was critical and that we needed to take her to Kottayam Medical College in under an hour. By then we had already spent an hour at the hospital," Binu explains.
"When we told the passengers there was no way the family could manage alone, no one objected," Binu says.
"The parents were not from a financially well-off family. The child's health was deteriorating, and she looked weak. All of us (other passengers) waited at the Casualty ward till the doctor came. I have no words to describe the kind of humanitarian work Binu and Vinod did. The story is very cinema-like, isn't it? There are people who do humanitarian work for publicity, but here are two people who silently did what is expected of humans," Surendran said.
