A Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) officer at Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport saved the life of a passenger named Mohammad Mokhtar Alam, who collapsed in the Pre-SHA area on September 1, 2025. Sub-Inspector Verendra Singh quickly administered cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on the spot, successfully reviving the unconscious passenger before medical professionals arrived at the scene.
The incident occurred when Alam, who was scheduled to travel to Gaya, suddenly collapsed and fell unconscious in the terminal's Pre-SHA area. CISF officer Verendra Singh, who was present at the location, immediately rushed to assist the fallen passenger.
A video of the incident went viral, showing the CISF officer swiftly performing CPR on the unconscious passenger. The timely medical intervention proved successful as the passenger regained consciousness shortly after.
"Showing exemplary alertness & presence of mind, SI/Exe Verendra Singh promptly administered CPR, reviving and stabilising the passenger until doctors arrived. Doctors provided initial treatment at the airport and later referred him to the hospital for further care. He is now reported to be in stable condition," the CISF stated in a post on X.
The medical team at the airport provided initial treatment to the stabilized passenger. Following the preliminary care, they transferred him to a hospital for additional medical attention.
In a similar incident, a doctor from SCB Medical College in Cuttack became a lifesaver during a flight from Bhubaneswar to Jaipur via Delhi. Dr. Jyotirmaya Nayak, a surgery specialist, was traveling to attend a medical conference when an elderly woman passenger lost consciousness mid-flight around midnight.
Dr. Nayak, who was seated near the elderly passenger, immediately responded to the emergency. He performed CPR on the unconscious woman, successfully stabilizing her condition before the aircraft landed.
After landing, the medical staff transferred the elderly woman to a nearby medical facility for further treatment. The video of Dr. Nayak's lifesaving intervention also gained attention on social media platforms.
These incidents highlight the significance of having trained personnel who can respond effectively to medical emergencies in public spaces. The quick thinking and proper execution of CPR by both the CISF officer and the doctor demonstrated the critical importance of immediate medical response in saving lives.
