An Indian minister who drank a glass of dirty water from a 'holy' river to prove to locals it's safe has been hospitalised after falling ill.
Bhagwant Mann, Chief Minister of Punjab, was airlifted to New Delhi after downing the polluted water from the Kali Bein.
Video showing Mann scooping up a glass of water and downing the filthy liquid has since gone viral.
A couple of days after drinking the water, Mann started to complain of a stomach ache.
He was taken to the Apollo Indraprastha Hospital in Sarita Vihar and was admitted overnight .
Medics said Mann had developed an infection and was treated by a multi-disciplinary team.
According to New Indian Express, as soon as medics completed a range of tests on the minister before he was released from hospital.

It’s not only the people that rule America who are insane.
But they’re good people.
Isn’t the impetus for the “invention” of Ivermectin the water in Indian rivers? The cooties in it were making people blind. The scientist who discovered Ivermectin got a prize — Nobel, I think — because it saved thousands of lives. (And still is, BTW.) Probably not a smart idea to drink that water, in any case.
The minister is a Sikh.
And now he is sick.
That’s what I was thinking. Any who live to adulthood must have nearly invulnerable immune systems.
I bet he had terrible diarrhea that same day. He had to be really hurting to finally go get help. Surprised he didnt fake a fall and go in for a fillintheblank trauma injury. Shoulda called Jussie Smollett maybe??
I saw a series of pictures from the Ganges a long time ago, and it absolutely turned my stomach.🤢
How many Sikhs can a sick Sikh seek?🙂
Does India not have water treatment?
VERY well played.
There are many photos of the holy river with dead people floating around with the sewage.
Never drink downstream.....
Always be aware of you surroundings....

The Minister must be a nutburger.
LOL!!!! “Say, this water tastes a little salty” LOL LOL
I’m reminded of another phrase, in a slightly different context but still applicable, “We hold these truths to be self evident.”
If it took two days to kick in it’s probably parasitic. You can get giardia from a clear-running mountain brook.
