• An IAS officer Awanish Sharan has shared a video that shows how desi jugaad can be used in a big way.
• Internet users said that the method encouraged cruelty to animals.
• People were critical of the fact that animals were used to pump water in the fields instead of electricity.

When it comes to jugaad, there is no doubt that Indians are the best. Several videos show this to be true, whether it’s using creative ways to cut down on work or using everyday items to make something interesting. Now, an IAS officer named Awanish Sharan has shared a video that shows how desi jugaad can be used in a big way. But Internet users said that the method encouraged cruelty to animals.

The video starts with a bullock walking on a machine that looks like a treadmill. It was shared on Twitter. As the camera moves out, you can see that the treadmill is connected to a pump that sprays water on the fields to keep them from drying out.

The video then shows many more of these machines that are run by bullocks. “Rural India innovation,” the caption said.

In the name of innovation, isn't it cruelty towards Cow? Cows keep running on small stage for hours?
