Hathras Stampede: The UP police, which runs bulldozers on the houses of all kinds of criminals, big or small, before punishing them, has not been able to register a single case against Baba Bhole, who is responsible for 121 deaths. The case has been registered, but not against Baba, but against the organizers of the satsang. But no one has been arrested. All of them are absconding. Baba is also absconding. And the bulldozer drivers are absconding, who despite such a big incident have not been able to break even the balcony of any of the accused’s house.
Not one or two but 121 people have died. More than 100 are injured. You may keep calling it a stampede in technical language, but the circumstances show that this is not an accident but murder. Accidents happen when the arrangements are perfect. Everything is in its place. But in such a big event, nothing was in place. There were neither adequate arrangements nor adequate police. Permission was for 80 thousand people, but 2.5 lakh people reached. Neither the administration nor Baba’s people stopped the people coming. There was no ambulance, no fire brigade, no police personnel, no arrangements for coming and going. The result was a stampede. And the stampede was so big that people kept falling on each other, dead bodies were lying around and the police-administration remained silent spectators.
Wouldn’t this be called murder?
So won’t you call this murder? Don’t call it that. But there have been deaths. And that too 121 deaths. So who will take responsibility for this? Isn’t Surajpal Jatav, who has declared himself as Baba, responsible for these deaths? But in the eyes of the police-administration, he is not responsible at all. Because if he was responsible, his name would have been in the FIR. But no. He is nowhere in the case. Then why is he absconding? Why is he not coming in front of the police, telling the whole story, naming those responsible. But no, he is absconding.
The other person whose name is mentioned in the FIR is the main sevadar Devprakash Madhukar, who is a resident of New Colony, Damdampura town, Sikandrarao Hathras. The police have not been able to find the names of the other responsible persons and all of them are unknown. Whereas the poster released by Baba for this program clearly states that the organizers of this program are Mahesh Chandra, Anar Singh, Sanju Yadav, Chandradev and Ramprakash. These posters were put up all over Hathras and its surrounding areas, but perhaps the police have not yet noticed the poster which has the names of so many organizers. A committee was formed for this program. There were a total of 17 people in the committee. Someone was responsible for the parking arrangements, someone for the pandal. Someone was responsible for getting the stage lights installed, someone for media coordination. Someone had to get rangoli made, someone had to distribute packets of prasad. People were assigned responsibilities to manage everything from the kitchen to the media. There was service of black commandos, there was service of gopikas. But this service and sevadar remained limited to Baba only. When such a big incident happened, not only did all these people abscond, but the police also did not bother to register a case against these absconders. Yes, everyone said that those who are responsible will not be spared, strict action will be taken against everyone, etc. etc.
Which sections of BNS are available?
The case has been registered under the new law implemented in India, i.e. Indian Judicial Code. It has sections of BNS 105 i.e. culpable homicide, BNS 110 i.e. creating such circumstances that lead to someone’s death, BNS 126 (2) i.e. forcing people to stop, BNS 223 i.e. disobeying government orders and BNS 238 i.e. destroying evidence and giving false information. The FIR itself says that in case of stampede, the organizers and sevadaars did not help and everyone ran away. The organizers and sevadaars of the event threw the belongings, phones, shoes and slippers of the people who got stuck in the crowd in the fields so that the correct number of those who died, injured and lost in the crowd cannot be revealed during investigation.
The SDM, who had given permission for 80 thousand people to attend this program, has clearly written in his report sent to the DM that the organizers of the program and Baba’s sevadars pushed the crowd, in which people fell and then people kept falling and dying. Then why is there no FIR against Baba? Is the government ignoring the words of its own two officers, in which the one who got the FIR registered is the sub-inspector of the police department itself, who is Brijesh Pandey, in-charge of Pora outpost of Sikandrarao police station of Hathras and the other is the SDM of Hathras himself.
Bulldozer did break dance in Etah!
In such a situation, in which Etah Lok Sabha Elections During the riots, the bulldozers did break dance in the presence of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. So far, 121 people have died because of Surajpal Jatav, a resident of Etah, but the bulldozers are standing silent. They have neither come out to demolish any ashram of Baba, who is absconding, nor are they going towards the house of any sevadaar or organizer, who have disappeared after switching off their mobiles. The question is why…and perhaps the answer to this will now be given by the Chief Minister. yogi adityanath I will be able to give only this.
