UTTAR PRADESH: A video of a police officer worshipping the Ganga River after his house was flooded has been going viral on social media for the past few days. The incident took place in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh. Low-lying areas were under water due to continuous rains across North India.

The ground floor of the house is seen flooded. The policeman is first seen in the video taking off his shoes and adjusting his pants. He then puts flowers and pours milk in the water and prays while chanting mantras. He says in the video that Ganga Mata has come to bless the people in the house.
