Dear Editor,
Sahadev Samal, a 40-year-old man sacrificed his life while saving seven women and a child who were drowning in the high tide waves of HudHud cyclone in Odisha recently. His bravery should not go in vane as his sacrifice should be rewarded. All women who got a new birth should also help his family. The district administration gave a mere ~10,000 to his family. Is this the reward for bravery? Sahadev should be conferred with the national bravery award. Also, a job should be provided to his family member to compensate for his life.
Nikhil Sharma,
