Hathras stampede | A litany of lapses

It had been 24 hours since the stampede at a ‘Bhole Baba’ satsang in Hathras. Subhash Lal, 42, a security guard from Morena in Madhya Pradesh, had spent hours at the district hospital looking for his mother, who had attended the religious gathering. He finally found her, among the several lifeless bodies at the hospital.
