He could have saved himself first, but what this Assam man did for his cattle amid the floods is going viral

Floods often reduce life to impossible choices. What should be saved first? A home, a few belongings, or one's own safety? In Assam, where relentless floods have submerged villages and displaced thousands, one man's answer has quietly moved millions.

A video from Sivasagar district shows him carefully leading his cattle through floodwaters instead of abandoning them. That single act has resonated far beyond the flood-hit state because it captures something disasters rarely show, the emotional weight of leaving behind those who cannot save themselves.
