A video circulating online, shared by an Indian Forest Service officer, shows a water body at the Manimahesh Yatra site in Himachal Pradesh, at 13,000 feet, littered with plastic waste. The footage, contrasting the scenic snow-capped peaks with the garbage, has sparked outrage among social media users who blame both pilgrims and administration for the environmental damage. Concerns were raised about waste management and the impact of tourism on ecologically fragile areas.
