3 cousins drown in Ganga while attending Chhath puja festivities
Tuesday, 5 November 2024 Three cousins tragically drowned in the Ganga river during Chhath Puja celebrations in Bhagalpur, Bihar. The incident occurred as the children were bathing at Mohanpur Ghat as part of the 'nahay-khay' ritual. One child was swept away by strong currents, and the others drowned while attempting a rescue.

Devotees gathering for the holy dip are unknowingly exposing themselves to dangerous pathogens, raising serious health concerns. With millions expected to take part in the festival, experts warn of potential waterborne diseases. How did this happen, and what are the risks? Watch the full report.
