Bodies will not be buried/cremated near Ganga banks: UP district admin

According to the new rules of the Uttar Pradesh district administration, the dead bodies will not be buried or cremated near Ganga banks now. 

After several decomposed bodies were found floating in the river Ganga in several cities of Uttar Pradesh, former Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Saturday indirectly took a potshot at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying the one who said that Mother Ganga has called him, has made it cry.

A plea has been moved in the Supreme Court to constitute a special investigation team (SIT) to conduct the investigation into over 100 corpses, found floating in the Ganga river in Bihar's Buxar, and Uttar Pradesh's Ghazipur and Unnao districts, amid the ongoing second wave of Covid-19 pandemic. 🔴Watch ABP News Live 24/7    • ABP NEWS LIVE 24*7: | PM Modi | NEET ...
