For someone without a steady job, stumbling upon cash would feel like spotting oasis in desert. But for Chagala Sahoo, a cash collector of Sahara Group at Paradip, such cash had no attraction.
Sahoo had returned a wallet filled with Rs 8,000 cash to its owner Bijoy Kumar Sahu, a local resident, who had lost it at the Badapadia market road in the year 2018.
Bijoy Sahu had visited the market area for shopping work when his wallet accidentally fell from his pocket.
With an intention to create awareness on honesty and idealism, the Paradip Model Police Station IIC and President’s police medal awardee Rajani Kant Samal felicitated Sahoo on Thursday. He even appreciated the work done by him.
Among others, senior journalist Gagan Bihari Sahoo, Sasanka Sekhar Acharya and Ratnakar Jena were present.
