Rajaram Joshi- The real hero who saved many lives at Vashi`s creek

Rajaram Joshi saves those who jump off the Vashi creek bridge. He doesn’t seek money or recognition. Rajaram Joshi clearly remembers the first time he saved a person from drowning -he was 12, and the boy he saved, seven. “My father, who was also a fisherman, taught me how to swim. During a swimming class, he told me that while drowning, a person clutches on to you and transfers his body weight to your shoulder. He also taught me how to handle such a situation without putting my life in danger,“ recalls Joshi.
