Dream of wearing uniform remained unfulfilled… Youth dies suddenly during race for police recruitment

Buldhana: A youth in Buldhana, Maharashtra, who was dreaming of serving the country by wearing a police uniform, lost the race of his life during the recruitment process itself. This incident is not only painful, but also raises many questions regarding the fitness and health of the youth.

What is the whole matter?

This incident is related to a youth from Buldhana district. Purushottam Bhimrao Burkul, 23, a resident of Chincholi Burkul village in Deulgaon Raja tehsil, had reached Pune to take part in police recruitment. As part of the recruitment process, he had to complete a race of 1600 meters. This race was being organized at Shivajinagar ground. Purushottam had successfully completed two laps of the race, but during the third lap his health suddenly deteriorated. He experienced a seizure and collapsed on the track.

The dream ended before reaching the hospital

The officers present on the spot immediately took him to the hospital, but before the treatment could begin, the doctors declared him dead. After this incident, an atmosphere of mourning was created among the other candidates and officials present at the recruitment site. This news is no less than a big shock for the family. The son on whose dreams the whole house depended suddenly went away from them.

Why does sudden death occur while running?

In such cases, the biggest reason is often heart related problems. Many times this problem already exists, but is not detected in normal life. The pressure on the body increases during fast running or hard work. The heartbeat becomes faster and the body needs more oxygen. If the heart does not function properly, the situation can suddenly become serious.

Cardiac arrest and other causes

According to experts, such incidents often result in cardiac arrest, which may look like an epileptic fit. Apart from this, in some youth the heart muscle becomes thicker than normal, due to which the blood flow is affected. In some cases, the structure of the heart’s arteries is not intact since birth, which can become a danger during vigorous physical activity.
