In the viral clip, villagers are seen wading through a waterlogged field, carrying Anwar on their backs, last Sunday. The Congress MP from Katihar was on a two-day visit to his constituency to assess the damage caused by the flood and to evaluate the overall flood situation. He toured the flood-affected areas by tractor and boat.
