AICC general secretary, Organisation, K C Venugopal said the stampede is shocking and deeply tragic.”The visuals that have come out are scary, and point to a massive calamity. I convey my deepest condolences to the families of the innocent victims and pray for the speedy recovery of the injured.”This kind of a disaster taking place in the national capital, under the direct watch of the Central Government, shows the government is utterly incompetent and is only capable of PR, not actual management,” he alleged.The government has again tried to downplay the situation, he claimed, demanding when will we know the exact figures of the dead and injured.”Why were crowd control measures not in place? Why did the railways not run special trains when they knew this crowd was to be anticipated in light of the Mahakumbh?” Venugopal said in a post on X.
