Uttarakhand: Dogs feed on half-burnt human corpses, video goes viral

Uttarakhand witnessed continuous rainfall for few days that led to the rise in water level in the Bhagirathi river. With water, some human corpses and body parts, half-burnt, had come floating to Kader Ghat. A video showing stray dogs feeding on the remains is doing the rounds on social media. Lokendar Bisht, the state convener of the Ganga Vichar Manch, a platform that aims to conserve the river, met with the officials concerned and demanded proper disposal of bodies. Bisht said, 'This is not the first time when stray dogs have been found feeding on human corpses. Many people leave the cremation site before cremating their dead properly.'
