Within 30 to 35 minutes, a passenger came forward to claim the bag. After a thorough verification process, including questioning and matching the documents found inside, the individual was confirmed as the rightful owner.

The bag and its contents were then returned to the passenger, who expressed gratitude for the CISF’s prompt and honest actions.

In a separate incident the same day, another CISF personnel at Lal Quila Metro Station returned a lost bag containing Rs 42,000 in cash and other valuables to its rightful owner, who had forgotten to take it with him.
