Electric car runs out of battery, Army man helps push woman's EV to nearest charging station

An Indian Army personnel is receiving widespread appreciation on social media after helping a woman whose electric vehicle ran out of battery before she could reach a charging station. The incident came to light through a viral Instagram video posted by vlogger Deepika Sharma, who described the soldier's assistance as an unforgettable act of kindness.

According to Sharma, she began her journey with about 60% battery, believing it would be sufficient to reach her destination. However, she misjudged the vehicle's remaining range. As the battery level dropped to 10%, she started searching for a charging station. By the time she found one, the battery had fallen to 2%, leaving the vehicle stranded before it could be plugged in.
