Ganderbal, July 02: A swimmer from central Kashmir’s Ganderbal district has saved dozens of people from drowning in River Sindh with his fearless and daredevil acts.

Haris Bashir Rather aka Harry posts his stunning videos on social media platforms regularly. His efforts have been praised by netizens as they see videos of him swimming in the river Sindh without carrying about his life.

Talking to Rising Kashmir Haris said his inspiration has been his teacher Bashir Ahmad Mir. “I have learned a lot of things about swimming from him.”

“When there is an accident or any mishap along Ganderbal-Sonamarg highway, people usually call me for rescue operations. It has become my passion to save human lives,” he told Rising Kashmir.

He said I along with my whole rescue team reach the spot whenever any untoward incident happens in Nallah Sindh. “I have jumped into the gushing water and saved many people.”

He says he does all this for the pleasure of the Almighty and he has no personal interest in it.
