Jaipur Police Made A 10-Year-Old Their Commissioner For A Day To Make His Wish Come True

    Girish Sharma grew up wanting to catch thieves, but is now battling life-threatening kidney infections. Here's the adorable story of what happened when he got to live his dream for a day.

    This is Girish Sharma. He's 10 years old and suffers from severe kidney problems.

    Make-A-Wish asked Jaipur's police force for help making Girish's dreams come true. The real commissioner, Janga Rao, was happy to vacate his post for a day.

    Mr. Rao was heartened to hear that a little boy wanted to grow up and be a policeman.

    So, on Thursday, April 30, Jaipur's men in khaki were led by their fearless and adorable leader, Police Commissioner Girish Sharma.

    Girish was driven around in a white ambassador and given complete VIP treatment by Jaipur's force. They welcomed him with a guard of honour salute and gave him tours of the Gandhi Nagar police station as well as the commissioner's office.

    Like any commissioner, Girish was extremely busy. For instance, he hosted a press conference where he answered reporters' questions.

    He reviewed and cleared important paperwork.

    And, of course, he did a lot of heart-melting marching and saluting.
