The armed police forces in the Jammu and Kashmir have led several operations mostly those related to terrorism but this one is completely different.&nbsp;

On Friday evening, during a regular patrol, men from Central Reserve Police Force's (CRPF) 23 battalion noticed a drowning puppy in a river, and an operation was launched immediately.&nbsp;

The puppy had slipped into the Jhelum river and a team led by CRPF sub-inspector&nbsp;

Vikash Pandey and his team noticed the noise and rushed to the rescue.&nbsp;

A man was immediately sent to bring a ladder while others kept a close eye on the puppy. Several attempts to take him out failed. Desperate, the puppy was constantly changing his position to save himself and that was making the rescue hard.&nbsp;

"We were withdrawing from our duty and we noticed a puppy drowning. The puppy was making noise for help but due to lockdown, there were no people in the vicinity," says Vikash.&nbsp;

Despite the tense situation, a head constable volunteered and took off his bulletproof vest while others looked kept a tight vigil. Sliding down the ladder, a CRPF man managed to hold the puppy and take him out, saving him from drowning.&nbsp;

"Our motto is service &amp; loyalty, we come to the rescue of anyone, be it a human or an animal," CRPF sub-inspector says.&nbsp;
