Both the security guards of the hospital were killed on the spot....Both of them were lying in a pool of blood....A little further a nurse was lying injured.....Kasab and his accomplice were crossing the porch and climbing the stairs of the first floor.
50 year old nurse - Anjali Kulthe - was watching this horrific scene from the first floor....on 26/11 she was on night shift.....she was in-charge of maternity ward....and there were 20 pregnant women in her ward....Seeing two militants with guns in their hands coming from the stairs towards her ward, Anjali rushed forward with all her might.....and she closed the two thick doors of her ward. She moved all the 20 women to a pantry at the end of that floor.
How delicate and risky it was to shift twenty pregnant women in such an emergency. Kasaband his accomplice had gone to the terrace of the hospital and from there were shooting at the police gathered below.....throwing grenades.....
Seeing that, Anjali, came out, took the injured nurse to the casualty and gave her proper treatment. Meanwhile, one out of the twenty women started having labour pains. Anjali took her by the hand, clinging to the wall and walked to the delivery room and with the help of the doctor there, the delivery went smoothly.
After the thrill of the attack was over, Anjali used to wake up scared from sleep for the next several days. After a month, she was called by the police. To establish Kasab's identity....she was later called as a witness in his trial......"To be allowed to wear my uniform!".....'Because, on that terrible night, I realised the responsibility on this uniform and that's why I could dare to do this......' she said.
Anjali Kulthe had not only saved the lives of twenty women that night but also twenty children who had reached the jaws of death before seeing this world.
Today these children will be fourteen years old.....They may not even know that they have 'two birth mothers' - one mother who actually gave birth to them after nine months and Anjali Kulthe.....the other mother who gave life before birth!
Salute to Anjalitai for your courage and resourcefulness!
