Pictures of a woman constable from Gujarat's Ahmedabad are doing rounds on social media and left users emotional with her deed. The constable, who won plaudits, was seen taking care of an infant while the mother was appearing for the Gujarat High Court's Peon Recruitment examination at Odhav. The incident happened on Sunday and was shared by the official Twitter handle of Ahmedabad Police. 

The constable has been identified as Daya Ben. Sharing the pictures on Twitter, Ahmedabad Police wrote in Gujarati that loosely translates to, "The child of the female examinee who came to take the exam at Odhav is crying so that the time is not wasted during the paper of the woman exam and it is good that she can give the exam in an orderly manner."

In the pictures, Daya Ben could be seen playing with the infant while the baby kept touching her face with her little fingers.
