A Police naik not only rescued the residents of Khan Estate Society in Jogeshwari West who were trapped in their flats after a fire broke out on the 17th floor, but also ensured that the roads near the society were cleared of vehicles so that fire brigade vehicles got easy access.
 
Police Naik Sandeep Daware attached with the Oshiwara police station and a cancer survivor who has undergone two surgeries and 50+ chemotherapy sessions in the past four years, got information about the fire at the 21-storey building on SV Road. At the time of the incident, he was driving a police vehicle with Inspector Raghunath Kadam, around 7.10 pm, on Tuesday. 

They reached the spot in two minutes and Daware climbed the stairs to the 17th floor without any safety equipment to rescue those trapped.
