A video shows swarms of bees feeding on Diwali sweets valued at around Rs 2 lakh at a shop in Haryana, drawing attention to the unusual incident.
A short video circulating on social media captures a large number of bees gathering around a sweet shop in Haryana during the Diwali season. The insects are seen feeding on trays of assorted confectionery that are reported to be worth approximately Rs 2 lakh.
The shop, which was preparing for the festive rush, had displayed an extensive range of traditional sweets, attracting the unexpected attention of the bees. Witnesses say the swarm appeared suddenly, likely drawn by the sugary aroma, and began to consume the treats en masse.
Local authorities were alerted, and the shop owner reportedly took steps to safely relocate the bees and prevent further loss. No injuries were reported, but the incident highlights the need for vigilance during festive preparations, especially when large quantities of sugary foods are involved.
The video has since been shared widely, prompting discussions online about pest control measures for businesses during high-demand periods like Diwali.
While the incident caused a temporary disruption, the shop is expected to resume normal operations after cleaning and ensuring the premises are bee-free.
