Hyderabad: A Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (TSRTC) conductor won praise on Sunday after his quick action saved a man who collapsed during an epileptic seizure at the Secunderabad bus station.
The incident occurred near Bus Point No. 229, where a man suddenly fell to the ground during a seizure. Chakri, a conductor from the Medchal depot who was on duty, rushed to the spot.
