A video showing a group of tourists performing Garba near a landslide-hit area has sparked widespread criticism online, with many social media users calling the behaviour insensitive and inappropriate given the circumstances.
The clip, which has been circulating widely on X and Instagram, shows a group of tourists dancing on a mountain road that had been affected by a landslide.
Several vehicles can be seen halted in the background as traffic remains disrupted due to the blockage.
Rather than expressing concern over the situation or waiting quietly for the route to reopen, the group appeared to turn the delay into an impromptu celebration.
In the viral video, men and women can be seen performing Garba, a traditional folk dance closely associated with Gujarat, while other stranded travellers watch from nearby vehicles.
