Sample GPE Story

You are a group of students from Dimapur district science college traveling to Nokia Fort on picnic. Instead of taking the hourly intercity bus service from Dimapur to Ranapur, you had hired a minibus for the picnic. On reaching the ferry point, you found a boatman bleeding profusely in the floor of a boat. He said that about 15 minutes back, four dacoits had crossed the river Damdama on his boat. During the ride, they were discussing their plans. They had planned to exchange drugs in the ruins near Chakrata international border from a foreign agent. Their leader Dacoit Mogambo had gone to Ramnagar to poison the drinking water tank during the annual mela to be held at 12 noon. When he had protested to poisoning of the water tank, the dacoits stabbed and injured him badly. After narrating the incidents, the boatman became unconscious. When you were contemplating your plan of action, a poor lady comes running towards you. The lady cried to you saying that her hut was on fire and requests your help to save her only house. The time now is 10 a.m. Placed under such situation, what will you do?
