In a world often plagued by negativity, a simple act of kindness can have a profound impact. This is precisely what happened in Gurugram, India, where an auto driver named Manirul Jaman restored faith in humanity by returning a lost bag to its rightful owner.
The story, shared on LinkedIn by Arnav Deshmukh, a product manager, details the experience of his friend who had accidentally left her bag in the auto-rickshaw. The bag contained essential documents like her PAN and Aadhar cards, debit and credit cards, and a sentimental diamond pendant from her late grandmother.
Panicked, the duo tried to contact the driver through UPI messenger and even sought help from the Gurugram police. While the police did their best to locate the auto, hope began to dwindle. But just as they were about to accept the loss, a phone call from the property dealer brought good news: The driver had found the bag and returned it untouched.
Arnav’s friend and her family were overwhelmed with gratitude, especially her mother, who was brought to tears. The post also commended the swift action and support of the Gurugram police, particularly ASI Rambir Singh.
Arnav’s post resonated with netizens, sparking a discussion about similar experiences and the importance of highlighting positivity. While one user shared a similar experience of losing something in a cab and successfully retrieving it, another user shared a heartbreaking experience of losing a mobile phone in an auto and never getting it back.
This story highlights the power of a single act of kindness and serves as a reminder that amidst the negative news, good deeds still exist. It inspires hope and encourages us to celebrate the small acts of humanity that make a big difference.
