BBC reported the burial of bodies in hart island thru a drone shot with trees as backdrop...the poor is poor whether it's Bihar or Boston.I am sure the Swayamsevaks of Bihar will help to overcome the situation

Hell is not enough to describe. Simply horrible.

Fact, Israel is killing children. They’re committing genocide, committing a war crime. SavePalestine SaveSheikhJarrah Palestine GazaUnderAttack

Hope indians will avoid to bath in it next.

zoo_bear Private hospitals are looting people. Common people are not left with money to pay a priest......They are asking 2,000 rupees [£20; $27] just to get the corpse out of the ambulance. The river has become their last recourse so people are immersing corpses in the river.'....

Expect the GOI to damage control - traditionally ashes are immersed, there must have been some oversight, as an exception. While I hang my head in shame, I am also aware of what might have led to this. Feel broken at the desperation and helplessness behind this.

zoo_bear Modi is such a shameless creature.

zoo_bear BBC is anti india.
