UP government suppressed Maha Kumbh death toll, alleges Rahul Gandhi citing BBC report
NEW DELHI: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday accused the Uttar Pradesh government of deliberately underreporting the number of fatalities in the January 29 stampede at the Maha Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj, referencing a BBC News Hindi investigation. The report claimed at least 82 people died during the incident, far more than the official toll of 37, highlighting that the deaths of economically disadvantaged victims were "erased" from official counts . Gandhi, speaking on X, condemned the suppression. He said, 'BBC report reveals that figures of deaths in Kumbh Mela stampede were hidden. Like in COVID, the bodies of the poor were erased from the statistics. Like after every major railway accident the truth is suppressed.'

Joshi seeks Siddaramaiah's resignation over 11 lives lost in stampede during RCB celebrations
Union Minister for Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution Pralhad Joshi has demanded the resignation of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on moral grounds over the stampede incident in which 11 persons died. Speaking to presspersons in Hubballi on Monday, Mr. Joshi lambasted the State government over the stampede incident and demanded that Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar should be dropped from the Cabinet. He also sought to know why the programme was conducted when the Police Department had advised against holding it. Eleven people lost their lives because of their (Congress government) craze for taking credit, he said. Mr. Siddaramaiah should be ashamed of comparing the stampede during the victory celebration in Bengaluru with the stampede during Maha Kumbh Mela, he said. Accusing Mr. Siddaramaiah of being partisan in taking action, he said that while his aide Govindraj has been divested of his responsibilities, Hemanth Nimbalkar who failed in discharging his responsibilities has been just transferred out of his post and not suspended. Stating that the Superintendent of Police of Dakshina Kannada district is indiscriminately filing cases against Hindutva activists, Mr. Joshi asked him not to behave like a 'Congress worker'. He said that he will go to Mangaluru and will see how many cases the Dakshina Kannada Superintendent of Police will file against him and his party workers. Mr. Joshi asked the Superintendent of Police to act in accordance with the law.

‘Shows apathy': Allahabad HC raps UP government for delay in disbursing Kumbh stampede compensation
The Allahabad High Court on Friday said that the delay in disbursing compensation to the families of those who died during a stampede at the Maha Kumbh Mela pilgrimage site in Prayagraj showed the Uttar Pradesh government's 'apathy to the plight of the citizens', Live Law reported. A bench of Justices Saumitra Dayal Singh and Sandeep Jain also directed the state government to furnish details of the deaths and medical handling of those who died or were injured between January 28 and the end of the pilgrimage. The Bharatiya Janata Party government in the state was also told to submit details of the number of compensation claims it had received and settled, and those that are pending. The stampede had broken out at the Maha Kumbh on January 29 as a large number of pilgrims arrived to take a holy bath on the occasion of Mauni Amavasya, a spiritually significant day in the Hindu calendar. The state government has said that at least 30 persons were killed and 60 others were injured, although several media reports have suggested that the actual toll could be significantly higher. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Adityanath had announced financial assistance of Rs 25 lakh for those who died in the stampede. The court was hearing a plea filed by the husband of one of the persons who died. It expressed concern that the woman's body had been handed over to her family without a postmortem being conducted. The judges took note of the serious injuries reported on the woman, including a crushed rib cage, and questioned the lack of official documentation or communication with the family regarding the cause and circumstances of the death, Live Law reported. The bench directed that medical institutions and authorities in Prayagraj be made parties to the petitions and directed them to file affidavits disclosing details of all patients and dead bodies that may have been brought to the facilities and those dispatched by them between the incident and the end of the Mela. The bench was alarmed that the woman's body was handed over to the family in February but compensation was yet to be provided, according to Live Law.
