Jhalawar : After the death of any person, his last journey is on the shoulders of others. But what should be done when the people involved in the last journey themselves come to participate in the last rites of someone by putting their lives in danger. This scene that has come out from Rajasthan will shock you. These pictures will force you to think that even today there is a place in the state, where after the death of a person, those who perform his last rites are facing so much trouble.
Questions arising on government systems
This horrific scene has come to light from Jhalawar district. Where people had to cross fast flowing canals and drains, risking their lives for the last rites. This system also raises questions on the budget spent in Panchayati Raj, which is given to each Gram Panchayat by the government. Questions are raised about government arrangements when the district administration does not make any such arrangements at the Panchayat level. So that after the death of a person, no problem is faced in his last rites.
We have been asking for a way for many years
These people crossing the water canal carrying the bier on their shoulders are from Sanoria village of Sirpoi Gram Panchayat of Sunel Panchayat Samiti of Jhalawar district. Where there is no way to go to the cremation ground. If someone dies in the rain, it becomes a problem. Today when Kamalabai, a resident of Kheda Sindhuria, died, the villagers were not even provided a way to go to the cremation ground for cremation. The villagers had to cross the water flowing in the canal risking their lives for cremation. The villagers say that they have been demanding a way to go to the cremation ground for many years. But their problems have not been solved yet.
