The monsoon season is tough on Mumbai residents each and every year due to heavy rainfall wreaking havoc in the city. So, while one end is romanticising the rain, the other side is suffering due to poor infrastructure and lack of access to safe shelters.
However, it is a sliver of hope when you see good Samaritans coming together to help those who are in dire need of support. An incident from the financial capital has gone viral on social media for the kind message it sends to everyone.

The incident reportedly took place in the Kandivali suburb where the cop steps in and helps them out.
In the video, the cop takes the father and daughter to safety with an umbrella over their head. 'You Can Count On Us! A Kandivali Cop helping an injured dad and his daughter reach to safety,' the caption said.
