IPS officer Dipanshu Kabra posted the video on Twitter of a buffalo using its horn to get water from a hand pump. Along with the clip, he also shared a popular idiom in Hindi as the caption. “Now say: Akal badi ya bhains,” it reads. The idiom means brain over brawn. In this context, however, Kabra added it to show how the buffalo has both – intelligence and physical strength.

The clip opens to show a herd of buffaloes standing around a hand pump. One of the animals uses its horn to pump the handle and drink water.

Take a look at the video:

The video has been shared a few days ago on November 19. Since being posted, the clip has accumulated nearly 2.2 lakh views. It has also gathered varied comments.

“Bhains ki akal [intelligence of buffalo],” wrote a Twitter user. “They know very well the importance of water,” shared another. “How wonderful,” expressed a third.
