Ex-Punjab Police IG recovers after self-inflicted gunshot

A former high-ranking police officer named Amar Singh Chahal was very sick because he shot himself in the chest.

Doctors at a hospital in Patiala worked very hard to save him.

They did a big surgery to fix his lung and other injuries.

He lost a lot of blood, but the doctors helped him get better.

He was on a breathing machine for two days and is now eating soft food.

The doctors think he will be completely better in about a week.

The hospital said that bringing him to the hospital quickly was very important for saving his life.
