The unfavourable conditions created by the current catastrophic floods putting hundreds of lives at risk encouraged a man in Swat to do something on his own to rescue the stranded people.
Wajid Ali made a bridge out of wood and ropes for people to cross the raging river in Bahrain and it took him only 48 hours to ready the bridge.
Hundreds of stranded people were rescued with the help of the bridge, which acted as means for them to walk to the other side of the river.
The video and pictures went viral on social media and garnered huge respect and appreciation for Wajid Ali.
