The video, which went viral on social media, has triggered reactions from the people and raised several questions across social media. Samajwadi Party supremo and the former chief minister of Uttar Pradesh, Akhilesh Yadav, also shared his thoughts on his official X (formerly Twitter), criticising the state government, “What could be more shameful than this? There is nothing more to say to either the Chief Minister or the Health Minister.” 

How Did The Deceased Woman End Up On A Bike?

The deceased, Buddharani, was a resident of Mohabbatpur Jeeta Village and had died under mysterious circumstances, as reported by NDTV India. However, the relatives alleged that it was a murder case. 

The police conducted a post-mortem and handed over the body to the family members, and started the investigation. As per reports, Budhharani’s husband (Changulal) and son (Dharmendra) then decided to take the drastic step of transporting the body on a motorcycle.
