Watch | Farm well in Gujarat Morbi is making waves, literally. Experts have an answer

A farm well in Gujarat's Morbi district has been causing a stir online due to its water surface exhibiting wave-like patterns, despite no apparent disturbances. Villagers and social media users are puzzled by the sight, which appears to be moving rhythmically. The phenomenon sparked curiosity and speculation, with authorities ordering a detailed investigation.

Morbi district collector Swapnil Khare has initiated the study, with experts from the Gujarat Groundwater Research Institute set to examine the cause. Preliminary assessments suggest that trapped air beneath the water might be responsible for the movement, as the shifting air creates the illusion of waves on the water's surface.

Authorities have ruled out any recent seismic activity in the area, assuring the public not to spread fear-inducing rumors. The Gujarat Groundwater Research Institute will conduct a thorough study and submit a report on the matter.
