Delhi incident heart rending, govt should compensate all alike: Akhilesh

Delhi incident heart rending, govt should compensate all alike: Akhilesh

Lucknow, Feb 16 (UNI) Samajwadi Party (SP) president Akhilesh Yadav on Sunday said the painful death of Maha Kumbh devotees in Delhi is "heart-rending".
In a statement issued here, Akhilesh said, "The people sitting in the government should think like a family member who has lost their parents, siblings, children and relatives and not like politicians. Honest arrangements should be made to send the bodies of the dead to their families with respect and the best treatment should be provided to the injured. The BJP government should not commit the sin of hiding the deaths."
He said the news of accidents of buses and other vehicles full of Maha Kumbh devotees is increasing day by day which is very sad. "The main reason behind this is that due to heavy traffic jams and chaos, the condition of the drivers is very bad. Neither their fatigue is getting over nor they are getting enough sleep. In such a situation, they are driving in a semi-sleep state due to which accidents are happening," he said.
