    An Indian official ordered an entire reservoir drained to find his phone

    An Indian official has been suspended after he dropped his smartphone in an essential water reservoir and ordered it to be emptied to retrieve it.
    Rajesh Vishwas, a food inspector, was taking a selfie when he dropped his cell phone into the Kherkatta Dam in the central Indian state of Chhattisgarh last weekend, according to BBC News.
    It took workers three days to pump millions of liters of water out of the dam after divers initially failed to recover the device.

    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    There must have been something really serious on that phone that couldn't afford anyone to see.

    How could a food inspector have that much power. At least enough where they drained the dam instead of calling someone higher up the chain
    Sure makes me wonder what was on that phone.
