That is why the ghats of Ganga have also been submerged in floodwater. Devotees in search of salvation reach Kashi to cremate their loved ones in great statistics. But the water of the Ganga is hindering the path of salvation. Manikarnika Ghat in Banaras is completely submerged these days, the situation has become that there is no space left for cremation.

The people have to enter the water and take the bodies to the ghats. The ganga's rough lying people are carrying the bodies in boats to the ghats. The last rites are being performed on the roof of the ghat due to waterlogging everywhere. On the other hand, wood is also being transported by boat for cremation. It is customary that salvation is attained in the land of Kashi. That is why people from all over the country and abroad reach the land of Banaras. But these days the city is reeling under the fury of floods.
