DCP (IFSO) Vineet Kumar and ACP (Rajouri Garden) Sharat Chand displayed great bravery and saved the life of ACP (Connaught Place) Vivek Bhagat during an attack on him. DCP (IFSO) Vineet Kumar arrived at the scene with his team to rescue ACP Vivek Bhagat, who was surrounded by a mob, and managed to bring him out safely.

During the rescue operation, a miscreant within the mob attacked Head Constable (HC) Rahul—an operator with the IFSO unit—with a knife, causing an injury to his abdomen.
