Lack of management by the Temple staff has led to the death of 7 pilgrims.
The police presence was less and there was no control of the crowd going for the darshan last night.
Seven devotees, including three women, died in a stampede at a temple in Bihar’s Jehanabad district last night allegedly after force was used to control the crowd. At least 35 others suffered injuries in the stampede at the Baba Sidheshwar Nath temple on Baravar hills.
Authorities, however, have denied any negligence on their part.
Diwakar Kumar Vishwakarma, Town Inspector, Jehanabad confirmed seven bodies had arrived at the Jehanabad Post-mortem Hose. Further investigation is going on.
