A team of patrolling National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) workers rescued two men drowning in the flooded part of the eastern Indian city of Bhadrak.

Footage, filmed on August 27, shows two NDRF workers dive into the floodwater and swim towards a man struggling to keep his head above the surface.

The pair then help the man climb onto the raft as another man is heard wailing in shock.

The area was submerged following heavy rainfall.
