A tale of bravery and selflessness unfolded in the Khammam district of Telangana amidst raging floods. Subhan Khan, a man hailing from Haryana, stepped up to become a real-life hero when he rescued nine individuals trapped on the Prakash Nagar bridge over the Munneru river. On September 1st, as floodwaters surged, Khan took a daring decision. He recognized the imminent danger faced by the stranded people and, without hesitation, drove a bulldozer to the bridge. With the power of the machine, he navigated the treacherous floodwaters and successfully brought back the nine individuals to safety. His selfless act of courage was praised on social media. Journalist Uma Sudhir highlighted Khan’s bravery on X (formerly Twitter), quoting his daughter who expressed immense pride in her father’s heroic actions. Khan’s words, “If I go, it is one life, if I return, I will save nine lives,” reflect the unwavering determination that drove him to risk his own life to save others. His actions stand as a testament to the power of human courage and compassion in the face of adversity.
