The accident took place during Bhole Baba’s satsang on July 2

Let us tell you that the satsang of Sakar Vishvhari Baba alias Bhole Baba started on July 2 in Fullerai Mughalgarhi village of Hathras. Despite the permission of 80 thousand people in the satsang, more than 2.50 lakh people came. As soon as Baba announced the end of the satsang, his private army took over the entire arrangements at the venue. But neither Baba’s private army nor the policemen were enough to handle the crowd. According to the local people, the crowd was stopped when Baba’s convoy left. During this, the followers became uncontrolled in the desire to touch his feet. After CM Yogi Adityanath took charge of the incident, the UP police started taking swift action. The police arrested six accused, which included four men and two women associated with the satsang organizing committee.
