Samajwadi Party (SP) president Akhilesh Yadav raised the issue of Maha Kumbh tragedy in the Lok Sabha. During the discussion in the President's address, he said that the double-engine government has hidden the figures of the victims of the accident. He cornered the BJP and asked why the figures were suppressed and hidden. Akhilesh said that an all-party meeting should be called to clarify the arrangements of the Maha Kumbh. The correct figures of the people killed in the stampede in Maha Kumbh should be given, punitive action should be taken against those who hid the figures.

 

He said, 'The government is constantly giving budget figures, but they should also give the figures of those who died in Maha Kumbh. My demand is that an all-party meeting should be called to clarify the arrangements for Maha Kumbh. The responsibility of Maha Kumbh disaster management and lost and found center should be given to the army. The figures of deaths in the Maha Kumbh tragedy, treatment of the injured, and availability of medicines, doctors, food, water, and transport should be presented in the Parliament. Strict punitive action should be taken against those responsible for the Maha Kumbh tragedy and those who hide the truth should be punished. We ask the double-engine government that if there was no fault then why were the figures suppressed, hidden, and erased?'

 

Akhilesh Yadav alleged that if he is found to be lying then he will resign from the Lok Sabha. He said that no one knows where the belongings and dead bodies of the people were thrown after the stampede with the help of JCB. Flowers were also showered from helicopters after the stampede. Akhilesh alleged that the news related to the stampede is not being allowed to come out. The Chief Minister of UP did not even express condolences to the dead.
