Watch Video! Horrifying videos of Locusts attack in India

Amidst the coronavirus pandemic, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh are facing a massive locust attack. The swarms of locust, which had reportedly entered Rajasthan in April, have wreaked havoc in several states. As the ‘flying terrorists’ have now covered 50,000 hectares of land, residents of Jaipur woke up to the terrifying sight of thousands of locusts resting on their terraces. 

Many internet users even shared the video of the locust swarming around their houses. While some users wondered if ‘2020 is the last year of mankind’, others expressed their concerns for farmers and their crops. The locust which bred and matured in Iranian provinces and Pakistan’s Balochistan province reached Rajasthan on May 22.  The Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare have deployed drones, satellite-derived tools, special fire-tenders and sprayers at pre-identified border locations. Here are some of the reactions by netizens.

I don't know how this works..but one locust/grasshopper/cockroach in a corner of the room is more terrifying than a whole swarm outside. https://t.co/NM61Bz10uw
