A shocking video of an old man being rescued from the silt of a river in Uttar Pradesh's Hamirpur has raised questions about access to basic resources like drinking water, for which many still have to risk their lives every day. In the now viral video clip, an old man can be seen sunk waist deep in quicksand while a man tries to pull him out by asking him to hold on to a wooden stick. A cop can also be seen smiling and recording the rescue effort on his phone, drawing criticism on social media.
