As a thick layer of toxic foam continued to cover the Yamuna’s surface, many devotees took a dip in the contaminated water during Chhath Puja festival and stood amid floating froth.
In a viral video, a woman was seen bathing in the Yamuna even as a toxic foam floating around her.
The froth has become an annual phenomenon so devotees are increasingly ignoring the hazard warnings and bathing in the polluted water despite the authorities asking them not to do so.
In a viral video, a woman was seen bathing in the Yamuna even as a toxic foam floating around her. At one point, she even used the froth as soap to shampoo her hair with it. Next to her four other women also take bath and wash their hair while being completely surrounded by the foam. They appear to be joking and laughing as they continue to stand in the toxic river water.
The video which has over 1 million views was flooded with comments from people who were shocked by the woman's actions.
