It is a heart-wrenching incident that more than 150 people died due to stampede in the event. -Crushed the other.

Nihang chief Baba Balbir Singh said that such incidents not only cause loss of life but also bring the country into disrepute. He said that even though orders have been given by the government of Uttar Pradesh to investigate the incident, it is generally seen that the action in such cases is uneven. Due to this, such tragic incidents happen from time to time. Why didn't the organizers talk to the local administration regarding the big gathering and its arrangements? He said that there is no pause in the process of people losing their lives due to poor arrangements and negligence in religious events because no such action is ever taken against the culprits that can set an example.

He said that it is surprising that no one has made any effort to see and understand whether there is an adequate arrangement to handle the huge crowd or not, how will the crowd be dealt with? After such a large number of people were killed in Hathras, there will be a rush of tributes to them, but will the mourners be able to ensure any measures are taken to prevent such embarrassing incidents from happening in the future? Was the administration there not aware of this? Carelessness only gives rise to such painful moments.
