MP: Mafias block way to cremation ground, locals take last rites procession through pond

Bhopal, Aug 26: A shocking video has emerged from Madhya Pradesh's Jabalpur district where a group of people can be seen wading through a pond carrying a last rites procession.

This has emerged a day after the video of a tribal man taking his wife's body home on his shoulder in Odisha went viral on social media.

According to reports, locals in Jabalpur district were forced to go through the pond after they were denied way to cremation ground by sand mafia.

Locals alleged that sand mafia goons have taken over the route and authorities failed to pay attention on their complaints.

A video of tribal man Dana Majhi from Odisha' Kalahandi district carrying his wife's body home on his shoulder after he failed to obtain a mortuary van or an ambulance from the hospital authorities went viral on social media on Thursday.
