“They protect us from coronavirus; they are my superhero. I wanted to make them happy and I made the card just to say thank you,” said Shipra Upadhaye, a student of Little Aryans, Dombivli.

She wrote thank you on four small square-shaped papers with the help of her mother. She also drew a smiley and wrote her name below.

“Since the past two months, through TV channels and our conversations she has been hearing how the police, medical and paramedical staff are helping us battle this global pandemic by standing on the roads, controlling mobs, treating patients and sacrificing their family time,” said Tanaya Upadhye, 30, Shipra’s mother.

“She asked me if we can say thanks for their hard work and prepared the notes. Her idea amazed us. I gave the cards to the police personnel on duty,” she added.
