India is in a situation of bother as Coronavirus cases are rising at a decent speed. The country has grabbed 4th spot as cases around 10,000 are coming in per day. In such a serious situation, hundreds of people gathered in Karnataka’s Haveri district today.
People gather to celebrate an annual temple festival without a mask and no social distancing followed.
Here’s a challenge: spot one person wearing a mask in this video.
This from Haveri, Karnataka yesterday when locals took out a procession. No permission, no social distancing. It was supposed to be “symbolic”. Legal action has been initiated against the organisers, say police. pic.twitter.com/CMgcddAbdo

In the video, devotees were seen without a mask, gathered in narrow streets and running in. They gathered to witness the traditional “wagon race” — an ornate bullock cart procession – said to be an important part of the festival to worship lord Ramalingeshwara.
The district administration has decided to file a case against the group of people. The authorities have granted permission for ritual and had canceled the wagon race. The state government has also allowed opening on religious premises but no permission is given for religious fairs and events.
Indian people deserve to die.. Governments cannot do anything alone.. Indian government should now let the people to save their own lives if they can.. Only help to given as to dispose off the dead body along with small monetary help to family..

Its unfortunate. Then, how can Government be blamed for increase in number of cases. Only self discipline can save us from corona.
