In these bleak COVID times, several people have turned saviours in the common man's fight against the pandemic.
Last week, it was Ravi, an auto driver from Ranchi.
This week, we celebrate Javed Khan from Bhopal, who is using his autorickshaw to drive COVID patients to hospitals.
He has even installed an oxygen cylinder in his auto. To fund the cylinder, he sold his wife's locket for Rs 5,000.
"I saw videos and images on social media where people were struggling to find ambulances and were forced to carry their family members to hospitals. That's why I started this."
Javed provides this service free of cost and has helped many people in the last 15-20 days.

COVID crisis: Mumbai man donates wife's spare oxygen cylinder
Date: May 1
Location: Mumbai
Even as we hear horror stories of people hoarding oxygen and making fake drugs and vaccines, there are heroes like Pascal Saldhana, a mandap decorator, who renew our faith in humanity.
Pascal's wife is on dialysis for the last five years as both her kidneys have failed. So they have an oxygen cylinder, and a spare, at home.
A few weeks ago, he received a anguished SOS call from a school principal, who requested the spare cylinder for her ailing husband.
Pascal's wife insisted on giving the cylinder and wanted her husband to help more people.
The Saldhanas sold their jewellery for Rs 80,000 and Pascal has been using this amount to provide the needy with free oxygen,
Speaking to ANI, Pascal said, "I have been doing this since April 18. Sometimes, people also give me money to help others.
"My wife is on dialysis and oxygen support so we always have a spare cylinder. One day, a school principal called me up for oxygen for her husband. I gave the spare one to her after my wife insisted. On my wife's request, I sold her jewellery, got Rs 80,000 and started this."
