[size=4][b]On January 7 when 26-year-old Naseem Akhtar went into labour pain, overnight snowfall in Kotranka tehsil of Rajouri district had made it difficult for her family members to shift her to the nearby hospital for normal delivery.[/b][/size][/font][/color][color=#333333][font=Georgia, Cambria,]
[size=4]The interior roads leading up to their native village in lower Kandi area were covered with snow and no other mode of transport was available to shift her safely to a nearby hospital. Considering harsh weather conditions and the continuous deteriorating condition of his wife, Master Khaliq Hussain delivered an emergency message to the nearby Army unit to rescue his wife without wasting more time.[/size][/font][/color][color=#333333][font=Georgia, Cambria,]

[size=4]The jawans had no choice but to carry her on the traditional ‘cot’ on their shoulders through the snow covered fields.[/size][/font][/color][color=#333333][font=Georgia, Cambria,]
[size=4]The hard work of the jawans paid off as a team of army doctors travelling with the ambulance unit helped Naseem Akhtar deliver her third baby after some time.[/size][/font][/color][color=#333333][font=Georgia, Cambria,]
[size=4]Both Naseem and Master Khaliq Hussain heaved a sigh of relief as their second issue had died at the time of delivery. As her condition improved Naseem was shifted to the district hospital in Kotranka and was later discharged on January 9.[/size][/font][/color][color=#333333][font=Georgia, Cambria,]
