Gagandeep Singh, the Uttarakhand police officer who saved a Muslim youth from an angry mob, says he was doing his duty. The sub-inspector at Ramnagar police station, who is being hailed as a hero on social media, also disapproved of right-wing activists or people in general attacking or disturbing a couple, if both are adults. The 28-year-old police officer, who hails from Udham Singh Nagar, told HT that the couple was sitting at a river bank near Girja temple when the angry mob attacked them. Girija temple is about 15 km from Ramnagar town in Nainital district.
