Speaking to the media in Delhi, the SP MP from Kannauj further alleged that what happened in Mahakumbh was due to the government’s mistake.

“The government is completely responsible for this. The BJP government is hiding its failure. It is not revealing the correct number of people who died in the stampede as it does not want to give compensation. This is the government’s insensitivity,” the SP chief alleged.
