This is the incredible moment villagers jump into fast-moving currents to save a girl from drowning.
A 12-year-old girl was swept away due to heavy current in Saraswati river at Prachi Teerth of Sutrapada, western India on Friday.
Footage taken by villagers standing on the bank shows at least two men trying to pull the girl to safety in a daring attempt.
The fast currents keep pushing them down the stream as they struggle to keep the girl's head above the murky waters.
Two more villagers then jump into the river and they form a human chain to help the girl to land.
Local reports stated the girl was on a visit with her parents to Prachi Tirth when the incident unfolded.
They were crossing the overflowing river when she was swept away.
The girl was luckily brought to safety and didn't suffer any injuries.
Father Jithendra Kanjibhai Jadav said it was a miracle that he got his daughter back.
