Question: Where did these dead bodies come from?
Answer: The Buxar administration claims that these dead bodies have come from Uttar Pradesh. However, many locals with whom the interacted say that it is the local people who are going to throw the corpse out of fear of costly funeral and corona.
River expert Dinesh Kumar Mishra in this regard. He said, “It is difficult to say where the corpses came from. Right now there is less water in the Ganges, if it were a rainy time, the corpses would have been swept away and no one would have known.”
“But the Buxar administration which is talking about the river curve (winding) at the crematorium ghat has power. The river erosion (cutting edge) in the outer edge of the curve and deposit (soil compaction) on the inner side. “This is the natural tendency of the river. If there is a corpse or something flowing in the inner circle, then the river will deposit the corpse outward like fine soil.”
Question: Is there a tradition for corpses to flow?
Answer: After the case of corpses flowing into the Ganges from Chausa block of Buxar came out on May 10, the statement came from the Buxar administration that we do not have a tradition of carrying corpses (in Bihar).
In this regard, Prabhanjan Bhardwaj, a Hindu ritualist, explains, “In Bihar, the corpse is burnt in most places. But in deaths from leprosy like snake bite or asymptomatic disease, the corpse is filled with water in a pitcher or banana thumb (stem). Is flowed in the middle of the river. “
They say that there is a tradition of carrying corpses in hundreds of villages of Uttar Pradesh. He says, “The Karmanasha river flows between Bihar and UP. The part of Karmanasha which is towards UP, the bodies are flowed in hundreds of villages by offering fire.”
