Morbi bridge collapse in Gujarat has so far claimed 147 lives while the search for the missing continues. This human tragedy has united people and ended the divides created by religions. As the bridge collapsed, about 500 men, women and children fell into the waters of Machchhu river in Gujarat and many barely clung to the remnants of the bridge.
In this situation, Hindus and Muslims together came forward and jumped into the river to rescue people. The Rashtriya Ulama Council mentioned two Muslim youths who played a key role in rescuing the survivors in its post on Twitter. They have been identified as Taufeeq Bhai and Hussain Pathan.
The Rashtriya Ulama Council tweeted in Hindi, ‘Two angels! Taufeeq Bhai and Hussain Pathan! While Taufeeq Bhai transferred 35 lives to the hospital, swimmer Hussain Pathan saved 50 lives by swimming. The newspapers of Gujarat are singing their praises and telling them God’s servants. Will those who spread hatred against their society get rid of their habit?’
According to reports, Taufeeq Bhai was in the hospital where his wife delivered their daughter when he heard of the accident. He rushed to the spot. Locals told that Taufeeq helped everyone forgetting to take care of his wife and the newly born baby girl.
Twitterati called them angels and eulogize them for their selfless humanitarian act of helping the people in need regardless of the religion to which they belong.
While lauding them they shamed hatemongers who divide the society to gain power.
Here are some of the tweets:
A man who saved 50 people is from muslim community, how ever he is just a human for me while enemy for BJP.. Since he has shown humanity BJPians will still hate his community for the sake of vote bank. In your bad time humanity comes to your help not religion.
