I find it absolutely hilarious to see people talking about ground water contamination as a justification for the prohibition of burials and supporting the cremation of #Covid19 victims in #SriLanka.

5. Our current political leadership had promised free fertiliser to farmers that use it to contaminate groundwater sources of well. This makes regions in the country severely impacted with renal failure! https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/15275922.2017.1340364?scroll=top&needAccess=true&journalCode=uenf20">https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/1...
