Telegu superstar Chiranjeevi has praised a woman police official in Odisha’s Malkangiri district for helping out a destitute woman.
The video of Shubhshree Nayak, the sub-inspector with the Malkangiri police station, feeding the woman on the street during lockdown had gone viral last month.
The sub-inspector had fed several other poor tribals and elderly during the course of her duty. In the video, the sub-inspector was also seen teaching an old woman how to wear a mask.
“Even in the most challenging situations, there is no #Lockdown to the motherly instincts. Saluting ALL the Mothers in the world #HappyMothersDay,” he tweeted on Mother’s Day along with the video of Nayak feeding the woman.
Chiranjeevi said he also called up the sub-inspector to thank her for her compassionate act of feeding destitute during the lockdown to stop the spread of coronavirus disease (Covid-19).

Last month, the photo of sub-inspector Barsha Mohanty of women’s police station in Cuttack feeding a woman on the road had also gone viral on social media.
