“I was sitting in my office having lunch when I saw, from my window, someone offering prayers on the roadside and a CRPF soldier stand guard for him. It was a unique sight, and it also symbolizes our secularism. So I decided to capture it. Rest is history.”

The internet has erupted in joy after the image went viral. “What a heartwarming moment. CRPF jawan standing guard while a Jammu and Kashmir cop offers prayers in Kashmir. Diversity is our strength!” tweeted Javaid Trali, media analyst of J&K government.
