In a bizarre incident, a doctor in India's Haryana state has claimed that eating cow dung can cleanse one's mind, body, and soul.
In a viral video clip, Manoj Mittal, a paediatrician with 28 years of practice in the medical field, can be seen standing in a cow shelter and talking about the advantages of having dung.
While saying that his mother always used to eat cow dung during fasting, he suddenly picks up the dung and eats it.
Netizens couldn't keep calm and flooded social media with hilarious reactions over the video footage.
Taking a jibe at the doctor, one user wrote that soon there could be cow dung (called "Gobar" in the Hindi language) made dishes getting provided at shops.
