A funeral in the open took place recently in Vasundari village near Titwala, Maharashtra, amid heavy rain. A video capturing the scene has gone viral on social media, drawing attention to the village's lack of basic cremation facilities. Villagers have been seeking a properly developed cremation ground and essential amenities for years, as the current arrangements are inadequate, especially during monsoon.
In the video, young residents are seen using a tarpaulin to protect the pyre from the rain during the last rites. The absence of a covered cremation facility affects both the grieving families and attendees, causing inconvenience and discomfort. Local resident Vishal claims that villagers have been raising this issue with authorities for several years, but no permanent solution has been implemented.
The local community now demands that a well-developed cremation ground be constructed in Vasundari, along with a permanent roof and other necessary facilities, to ensure that families are not forced to perform funerals in the open, particularly during the rainy season.
