<p>Jagjit Singh, a dedicated flood rescue volunteer from the north Indian state of Punjab, had encountered countless lost-and-found stories in the past. However, during a mission last week, fate smiled upon him, leading to a momentous reunion with someone he had been separated from for over three decades: his mother, Harjit Kaur.</p>

<p>The heartwarming encounter took place at his maternal grandparents' house in a quaint Patiala village on July 20. Overwhelmed with emotions, Jagjit documented the touching reunion on Facebook. The long-awaited reunion brought tears of joy as mother and son embraced each other.</p>

<p>According to a report in<em> The Times of India</em>, Jagjit's life took a sad turn when he lost his father at the tender age of six months. After Harjit remarried, his paternal grandparents took him away when he was just two years old. Growing up, he was reportedly misinformed, being told that both his parents had tragically passed away in an accident.</p>

<p>However, the course of fate changed dramatically when Jagjit's aunt intervened, paving the way for the remarkable reunion with his mother.&nbsp;</p>
