What local administration is doing? In a video, shared by news agency ANI, a sea of devotees thronged the temple in Barsana catching laddus thrown by possibly the temple's workers from what seemed to an elevated part in the shrine. The minute-and-a-half long video comes as India battles a recent Covid spike, prompting authorities to implement stricter measures across many states. Men, women and even children jump and try to catch the laddus that are being thrown in the video. They even threw laddus at each other. The temple's premises were overflowing with people; very few had masks on and there was no social distancing.More Related News
