Barat on Rescue 1122 Boat Amid Severe Flooding Goes Viral on Social Media: Watch

In an unprecedented event that surprised many, a wedding procession (barat) took place on Rescue 1122 boats in flood-affected Toba Tek Singh, Pakistan. Despite the challenges posed by the severe flooding, the couple and their families remained determined to celebrate their special day.

Pakistani weddings are deeply cherished cultural events, and even during the COVID-19 pandemic—when many suffered infections—people continued attending weddings, underscoring their passion for these celebrations. The recent floods, however, did not stop the festivities.

The couple, adorned in traditional wedding attire—the bride in a red bridal outfit and the groom alongside his smiling family—were transported via Rescue 1122 boats through the floodwaters. Their unique wedding videos have since gone viral, drawing widespread attention on social media.
