Wedding Procession Resorts To ‘Jugaad’ To Beat Heatwave, Internet Dazzled

The video was posted by Devyani Kohli who wrote the caption, “This is why #India is called land of Innovation or simply "Jugaad" To beat the #Heatwave during "Baraat" Indians have found solution."

New Delhi: Big fat weddings in India are the only thing that can stand the test of time and temperature. Several parts of India are reeling under heatwave conditions, but that doesn't seem to have dampened the spirit of people celebrating weddings with pomp and show. An example of that "test of temperature" was seen after a video went viral showing a wedding procession moving ahead under the shade of a pandal. 

The video was posted by a Twitter user, Devyani Kohli, who wrote: "This is why India is called land of innovation or simply jugaad. To beat the heatwave during 'baraat' Indians have found solution."

The video has garnered 15.8k views so far and is taking the internet by swirl. 

While it is not clear from where was the video posted, it is clearly the daytime with the sun shining. India is currently experiencing a heatwave with the temperature reaching 45  degrees celsius in various regions. The India Meteorological Department has issued an orange alert for Rajasthan, Delhi, Haryana, UP & Odisha.

Not The Only ‘Innovation’

It is not the first case of someone resorting to ‘jugaad’ or innovation to make the wedding procession keep going. On April 22, another video went viral on social media from Madhya Pradesh’s Tikamgarh in which the wedding procession can be seen walking alongside an air cooler on a rickshaw. 

The Baraatis can be seen dancing to DJ music as a rickshaw fitted with the air cooler follows them. The temperature was touching 42 degrees Celsius that week. 

As per the IMD, heatwave conditions are likely to prevail over northwest India for the next five days and east India over the next three days.
