This story isn’t just about civic negligence — it’s about how national outrage is shaped by confusion. A single viral image made the internet blame the wrong leader. People’s knee-jerk political reactions now matter more than facts. The real headline is not “Devotees stood in drain water,” but “India’s outrage stood in misinformation.”
🔥 “Did mamata Forget Haryana?!” — When devotion Meets Drain Water and Misinformation Floods the Internet
When faith meets filth, outrage follows — but what happens when the outrage itself flows in the wrong direction?
They came with prayers, offerings, and hope — women standing waist-deep in what they believed was a sacred reflection of the Sun. But instead of holy waters, it was a filthy drain, and instead of divine purity, they found civic apathy. Yet the real shock wasn’t just the murky water — it was the murkier confusion that flooded social media afterward.
As the videos went viral, users across india fumed: “Is mamata sleeping again?” Thousands angrily tagged mamata banerjee — the chief minister of West bengal — demanding answers about “Haryana’s shame.”
That’s when reality hit like a cold splash: Mamata Banerjee isn’t even the cm of Haryana.
The actual state government remained largely silent as the misplaced outrage spiraled. What followed was both tragic and comic — a flood of misinformation larger than the one in the drain itself. The women’s dignity was lost in a blame game.
This is India’s new ritual: anger first, accuracy later. Faith was mocked, politics weaponized, and civic truth drowned beneath memes. Instead of demanding accountability from local bodies, social media collectively burned its torches in the wrong direction.
The tragedy of the Chhath Puja in haryana wasn’t just about dirty water. It was about how clean information can still get polluted.
Some devotees said they performed the ritual regardless — because “God sees the intention, not the water.” Maybe they were right. Maybe devotion is the last thing still pure in this country.
