This special report covers the tragic stampede at the Kashi Bugga Venkateshwara Swami temple in Srikakulam, Andhra Pradesh, which has led to the deaths of nine devotees and left several others injured during Karthika Masa Ekadashi celebrations. The anchor, Priya, raises a critical question about accountability, asking, ‘But then the question remains, what about crowd management by the authorities, by the temple authorities, by the security forces that are in fact, you know, deployed in these places, especially on such special days.’ The incident, which occurred amid a massive rush of devotees, has prompted a large-scale rescue operation, with the injured being moved to nearby hospitals. Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu has expressed his shock and offered condolences to the families of the victims as the state grapples with the devastating loss of life.
