“He came as a saviour of lives as a result of our collective prayers,” writes the actor, commending the officer for strictly enforcing anti-speeding measures and helmet for two-wheeler riders.
He compares Mr. Singh to E. Sreedharan, the former iconic head of the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC).
Need role models
He adds these two worth-emulating officials have demonstrated that the country can indeed be made liveable and better with more such officials.
