On September 2, 2010, then 35-year-old Shrestha, a retired Gurkha soldier in the Indian army, was on his way to Nepal after retiring from his Gurkha soldier military service whilst 15-40 armed robbers attacked the train in which he was travelling. The group robbed the passengers of their portable valuables (like money, jewellery, cellular phones and laptops). He intervened using his Khukuri knife when the robbers tried to steal the jewelry of a mother and her 8-year-old daughter and attempted to rape an 18 year-old girl who pleaded for his help.
We conducted 6 blood donation drives in the month, collecting 748 units of blood.
