In a congregational stampede in Hathras, Uttar Pradesh, 123 individuals tragically lost their lives. The whereabouts of Suraj Pal (aka Narayan Sakar Vishwa Hari), the 'Baba' in question, remain unknown following the incident. However, Baba channeled his message through a lawyer, expressing condolences for the deceased and urging punitive action against those found guilty.

Who is to Blame for the 123 Deaths?
Neither Baba nor his followers accept blame for the incident, suspecting conspiracy, yet the question looms: Who is responsible for these 123 lives?
Seven Arrests Made in Hathras
Since the tragic tumult last Tuesday, which claimed 121 lives, police investigations into Baba Suraj Pal's servants and event organizers are deepening. With prior arrests made, the key suspect, Devprakash Madhukar, was apprehended on Friday evening.

Madhukar, the main organizer of the Hathras event, is also known to be one of Baba's close associates. Post-incident, Baba was reported to have been in lengthy contact with him. Absent since the panic, Madhukar's whereabouts remained a mystery until his recent arrest. He was once a junior engineer before turning into an ardent devotee of Baba Suraj Pal.
