A 4-year-old girl was rescued by an elderly man from being electrocuted after she came in contact with a faulty wire and fell facedown on a waterlogged road in Uttar Pradesh's Varanasi on Tuesday.

The child struggled to get out of the water, also electrified because of the live wire. In the midst of the chaos, an e-rickshaw stopped at the scene, the passengers disembarked and rushed to the child's aid.
