Cuttack: A police constable on duty saved a woman who was allegedly trying to jump from the edges of an overbridge at Link Road traffic intersection in front Madhupatna police station in Odisha’s Cuttack on Tuesday.
According to sources, the woman, identified as Pranati Sahani, decided to take the extreme step to end her life over a family feud.
