A senior police official said, "Around 5:45 pm, the heart was being moved on the green corridor to Ruby Hall Hospital. Around the same time, the CM's convoy was to leave from Lohegaon airport towards the city. We asked the CM's convoy to wait and gave priority to the green corridor."
The timely call and brave decision earned the Pune Traffic police huge praise from CM Devendra Fadnavis as his convoy was deprioritised in order to ensure speedy transportation of a heart for transplant through a green corridor. This green corridor incident was incidentally the 100th green corridor created by the traffic cops in the state's second-largest city for organ transplantation.
