In a new initiative, Delhi police will now train its men posted in South Delhi district in 'Cardiac first aid'.
"Every policeman will be taught 10 CPR techniques and also other first aid methods, which are required to be learnt by these police personnel as mostly they are the first responders in case of any emergency," said Deputy Commissioner of Police (South) BS Jaiswal.
The training will be conducted in association with Heart Care Foundation of India. Sessions would be conducted by Dr BC Roy, President of Heart Care Foundation of India and Dr. K.K. Aggarwal.
"This will be for the first time that the entire staff of a district will undergo training in First Aid," said Jaiswal.
