On September 4, 2010, Om Prakash was going to school along with other students in a Maruti van. But all of a sudden, the van caught fire because of a short circuit in the gas kit.
The driver immediately opened his door and fled. But not Om Prakash.
He broke open the van door and pulled out the others, caring little about the flames that had spread to his face, back and arms.
He saved eight children. For his bravery, he has won the Sanjay Chopra Award.
