We often tell our kids not to seek any help from strangers. Especially if it's a girl child and a group of men, every parent or teacher would say, "Don't even go to them and end up in trouble." But this video from Kerala proves that, in times of need, it is the strangers who become the real saviours.
CCTV footage from the roadside of Kerala, Kannur, is making rounds on social media. In the video, an eight-year-old girl is seen standing on the opposite side of the road with her bicycle. On the other hand, there is a group of men on their two-wheelers having a friendly chat. After a while, the girl comes near them on her bicycle and expresses her discomfort. Soon, one of the men lifted her and pressed on her back; others also joined him. What had happened was that the kid had choked on chewing gum, and they couldn't dislodge it. Undoubtedly, it is the presence of mind of the kid to seek their help and their timely intervention that has saved the life of this little girl.
