The viral clip, reportedly filmed at a religious site in India, shows the foreign visitor standing at the Ganga ghat before taking a dip. At first, everything appears normal, he smiles, bows slightly, and prepares to immerse himself in the holy waters. But as soon as he places his foot in the river, something unexpected happens. The man suddenly looks down, realising something is tangled around his feet.

Leaning closer, he discovers it is not just river debris but a bundle of dirty clothes and waste caught around his legs. The moment turns even more unpleasant when he notices that the items include old undergarments and discarded fabric, floating in the water. Visibly disturbed, the man steps back as the video abruptly ends. The short clip has since become the subject of heated discussion across platforms.

The video was uploaded on Instagram by a user named Nolan Saumure, and it has already been viewed millions of times, attracting thousands of reactions. While some users found the situation unfortunate, others expressed anger and shame over the incident.

One user commented, “Brother, I hope you didn’t fall sick after that,” while another wrote, “We sincerely apologise on behalf of our people.” A third user added, “People should be ashamed of throwing garbage into the Ganga.”

The viral footage has once again highlighted the issue of pollution in the Ganga River, prompting many to call for stricter measures to protect the country’s most sacred water body.
