Amidst the unfolding danger, a young man named Mithun Ali happened upon the scene and immediately recognized the imminent peril. Despite shouting warnings to Chhetri, she remained oblivious to the approaching threat, leaving her vulnerable to the looming danger. Displaying remarkable courage and presence of mind, Ali positioned himself between Chhetri and the advancing elephant, effectively shielding her from harm and diverting the animal's attention.
