Heavy rain in Pune and nearby areas caused severe waterlogging, turning streets into rivers and making even short journeys risky. (Unsplash/Representational Image) One such challenge came into sharp focus recently, where a delivery agent faced a terrifying moment on a flooded street. A video that has gone viral shows a young deliveryman struggling to keep his balance during heavy rain as his bike gets stuck in knee-deep water. While trying to restart it, he lost control and fell into the water. The fall opened his delivery box, spilling the package he was carrying. Luckily, three bystanders acted quickly. They helped the delivery boy back on his feet and assisted him in collecting the scattered items. Many suggested that the incident took place in Pune.

Social media users reacted strongly to the video, praising the people who helped him and expressing concern for delivery workers facing such risky conditions.
