This Auto Rickshaw Driver Receives Help From The Entire Internet To Treat His Wife!

Humanity at its highest order.

Mohammad Saeed, an auto rickshaw driver in Mumbai received huge support from people after his tragic plight was addressed by Mumbai Mirror. Apparently, Saeed had to drive his auto along with his two year-old son on his lap since his wife suffered a paralytic stroke.

In just hours after his story was put up by Mumbai Mirror, Saeed received almost Rs 30,000 in his bank account as donation. Saeed’s issue became viral after Vinod Kapri, a film director posted a picture of the auto drier along with his son.

 

Many donated money for Saeed and some also volunteered to take care of his children, Muzammil and Muskaan. Some NGOs have called him up to offer their help and doctors also promised to treat his wife free of cost. Grateful, Saeed’s wife Yasmin has offered to cook food for all those who have helped them.

According to Saeed, his son would cry due to the immense heat and traffic. He could not leave him behind and had to carry the little boy with him. Saeed told the Mirror, “I feel sorry for my son… he’s just two and for someone so young, to travel in an autorickshaw for 10, 12 hours a day, it’s sheer torture. But he’s handled it bravely so far.” Saeed was also once fined Rs 450 by the traffic police for having his son on his lap. 

The family was kicked out from their house for not paying the rent at time. The family had to live in their 200 sq ft neighbor’s shack in Versova. 

Saeed is hopeful now because of all the help he has been receiving. He said that he will admit his wife to a hospital now. “I know she will be alright. I thank the people of Mumbai for their support and blessings,” he said to the Mirror.
