- S GODSON WISELY DASS @ Thoothukudi

G Princeton was 21 when he suffered a bullet injury in his right leg when police opened fire at anti-Sterlite protesters on May 22, 2018. The leg was amputated to save his life and he was fitted with a prosthetic leg. Seven years on, he is struggling to keep the leg in shape.

Recalling the mayhem that broke loose on that fateful day, he said, "I was standing in front of the government polytechnic institute on Palayamkottai road watching the protest rally when police started to open fire. I was shot in the leg," he said.
