More bodies have been found buried in the sand on the banks of the Ganga in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh.“For the last 2-3 months, people have been burying their dead here. Sand covering the bodies is blown away by strong winds, exposing the decomposing bodies,” said a local.
“The government should be more careful, especially during this pandemic, as this can spread more diseases to people and worsen the situation. People are helpless. Many are poor and do not have the resources for a proper burial,” added another.
Locals have also voiced their concerns about the sanctity of the river Ganga being compromised, as devotees bathe in the holy water but because of the foul smell, cannot.
According to the district administration, 165 fresh cases, 521 recoveries and nine deaths were reported in Prayagraj on Saturday.
