Congress leader DK Shiv Kumar tweeted the video raising the pathetic condition in Karnataka; he said with a tweet, It's disturbing to see bodies of COVID patients who have died being dumped inhumanly into a pit in Ballari. Is this civility? This is a reflection of how the govt has handled this Corona crisis. I urge the govt to take immediate action and ensure that this doesn't happen again.
