A man carried his elderly parents on his shoulders during Kanwar Yatra in a viral video. The clip was shared on Twitter by IPS officer Ashok Kumar.
Parents are the light and life of one’s life. If you have been surrounded by the love of both your mother and father, you must consider yourselves among the luckiest people. Well, you must be thinking about why we are talking about this all of a sudden? Actually, in a video that has gone viral online, a man can be seen carrying his elderly parents on his shoulders during the Kanwar Yatra. The clip was shared by IPS officer Ashok Kumar and has been viewed over 10k times.
In the now-viral video, a man can be seen carrying his elderly parents on a scale. He replaced the scale’s containers with small chairs and carried his mother and father on his shoulders. The unidentified person did this so that his parents could attend the Kanwar Yatra.
“Nowadays, old parents are despised, they are thrown out of the house or not allowed to live with their children. Whereas, today the opposite view was seen. There is a Shravan Kumar among lakhs of Shiva devotees who has come on a Kanwar Yatra with his elderly parents in a palanquin. My respects!” reads the caption of the post.
