Photo gallery captures monsoon, pilgrimage, protest and drought scenes

The Story in Brief

A Deccan Herald photo gallery dated 6 August 2026 presents scenes from India and abroad. It shows people wading through a waterlogged road after heavy rains in Kolkata and women Kanwariyas carrying Ganga water in Prayagraj for Shravan rituals at Lord Shiva temples.

Other images show boats stranded in mud at Poland’s Sulejow Reservoir during a heatwave, a violent protest in Rohtas over a labourer’s killing, and a 200-metre Indian flag rally in Reasi, Jammu and Kashmir. The captions offer limited background on the causes or consequences of the events.

The Indian Opinion

The gallery gives a quick view of weather impacts, religious practice, public activity and unrest. However, striking images may prompt firm conclusions without sufficient context. The Rohtas protest and the labourer’s death require fuller reporting. The reservoir photograph alone cannot explain the low water levels. Readers should treat the captions as an introduction, not a complete account.
