Kerala rains: family of three miraculously rescued from drowning

The rains and subsequent flooding have caused some havoc in the state of Kerala.

As per India Today report, the latest example of the devastation can be seen in these visuals where a man is seen holding a bus tyre with one hand and his son with the other as strong currents of muddy water flow around them.

The father son duo was accidently caught and noticed when Jaison Joseph, conductor of a Kerala Road Transport Corporation bus, who was apparently filming the intensity of the rain, saw a man and a child covered in sludge, clinging to his bus tyre.

Jaison immediately put the phone down, got off the bus and pulled the man and child inside. The man's wife who was also stuck at a nearby car was rescued after Jaison alerted others.

The father and son can be even seen standing inside bus covered in mud from head to toe after being rescued. The family was later identified as tourists from Gujarat.
