An elderly man and his pet dog were rescued after they got stuck in the middle of a flooded river in northern India.

The man and his pet dog were walking by the river Mashan in Chhatarpur on September 19 when they got stuck due to a rise in the water level.

Footage captured on September 20 shows the man stranded on top of an isle in the middle of the river as the rescue team arrives at the scene. His dog can be seen swimming to the shore.

One of the rescuers then plunges into the river with a float attached to a rope held by other members of the team standing at the shore. He then swims towards the isle to rescue the man.

The man then grabs the float and is towed to the shore safely.
