“The battle of elephant and mahout with boiling water, the pictures are of Raghopur in Bihar.” (Translated)

Many coastal regions of India are facing the brunt of the monsoon’s wrath, and numerous areas of Bihar experienced flooding a few days ago due to the persistent heavy rainfall. During the monsoon season, the water levels in Bihar’s rivers, especially the Ganges, frequently exceed the danger level, causing flooding in neighboring areas.

Recent flooding was also observed in RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav’s Bihar Vaishali district constituency of Raghopur. The Ganga river was swollen, and an elephant with a mahout on his back was observed attempting to cross its raging waves.
