Heavy rainfall brought several parts of Gurgaon to a halt, submerging roads and paralysing daily commutes. As images of traffic chaos flooded social media, one commuter's post detailing his rescue from waterlogged streets by a passing rider went viral online.
Trader and YouTuber Manas Arora wrote on X that a rider had come to his aid amid the downpour, transporting him to his residential neighbourhood, a locality he described as being worth Rs 300 crore. He mentioned having to abandon his car on the road during the ordeal. Arora shared a photograph of himself standing beside his vehicle on a fully submerged stretch of road, followed shortly after by a video showing him riding pillion on a stranger's bike as the two carefully navigated through the floodwater.
