Here in the video we can see a moment when a cop jumps into the river to save a drowning man. A devotee attending the Kumbh Mela in Nashik in Maharashtra tried to finish himself by jumping off a bridge into the waters of the River Godavari below. A 24-year-old policeman on duty, Manoj Barahate, dove right in after him and saved the stranger’s life. His act of bravery was caught on security cameras. The Kumbh Mela is a celebration of faith in which Hindus bathe in a sacred river is held every third year and is rotated between four holy sites. It is held at Nashik every 12 years and, although it isn’t on the same scale as the editions on the Ganga at Haridwar and the Sangam at Allahabad, it still draws millions of pilgrims. The Police officer has done an incredible job and his guts are all praised.
