How This Group Is Helping Senior Citizens Stranded In Vadodara Floods

Following days of relentless rain, parts of Gujarat, especially Vadodara, faced significant waterlogging, leading to severe flood conditions. The situation resulted in the evacuation of over 18,000 people and the rescue of more than 300 individuals. The district administration has been overwhelmed by rescue requests as they battle the unprecedented flooding. Amid the chaos, the residents have stepped up to assist those in need. Many good Samaritans have been tirelessly working to rescue people trapped in the floodwaters, providing food, essential supplies and even medicines.

One notable incident gaining attention online involves a group on Reddit, led by Abhay and his team, who have been lauded for their efforts in helping senior citizens stranded in a flat during the Vadodara floods. They shared a post asking others to spread the word about their service, including their contact information, available areas and other crucial details for those in urgent need.

The group on Reddit is being headed by Abhay and his team who are helping people in need with food and medical services. They had put out a post asking people to spread the word about their service, especially for those who urgently need it. They also shared their number, the area where the service is available and other details.

“I forwarded this to my friend whose grandparents were stuck in a flat. Water downstairs was coming till chest level. My friend called on this number. Their vehicle was not working still they somehow managed to reach the site within 2 hours. And helped senior citizens move out,” the post on Reddit reads.

“I am amazed and thanks these guys million times for this. My friend called me at 7:30 in the evening yesterday. Mind you we are friends but we haven’t talked in years so when her call came, I was not expecting her happy cheerful voice. All this happened because of Mr. Abhay and his post on Reddit,” the post further reads.

Within a few hours of being shared, the post has garnered more than 800 upvotes. Currently, the internet is praising Abhay and his team for all the timely help and support.
