Last Updated: At least three devotees died, and over 50 were injured after a stampede broke out near Shri Gundicha Temple during the annual Rath Yatra in Puri. Puri Stampede: After three devotees tragically died in a stampede near Shri Gundicha Temple during the annual Rath Yatra in Odisha's Puri on Sunday, a man from Puri, who lost his wife in the incident, said no one came to his help, describing the situation as 'pathetic". A stampede broke out in front of the chariot of Lord Jagannath, Nandighosh, when it reached the Gundicha Temple in the early hours of Sunday. At least three devotees died and over 50 were injured. A huge crowd of devotees gathered to have darshan of the deity, which led to the collapse of the crowd barriers. As a result, several devotees fell over each other near the wheels of the chariot. The deceased have been identified as Basanti Sahu from Bolagarh of Khorda district, Premakanti Mohanty, and Prabhati Das from Athantara village under Balianta block. A man who lost his wife in the incident said that not a single authority responded to the escalating situation in Puri.

This is a pathetic incident that cannot be expressed in words," he told reporters.

Alcoholic sets mother on fire over Rs 5 lakh in Telangana's Warangal

HANAMKONDA: In a bone-chilling incident that sent shockwaves across Kuntapalli village of Sangem mandal in Warangal district, an alcoholic allegedly set his mother ablaze in the wee hours of Saturday. Police said an elderly couple, M Vinoda and Venkataiah, had received Rs 20 lakh from the state government as compensation for their agricultural land, which is being developed as a textile park. From the amount, they equally distributed Rs 15 lakh between their son and daughter and kept Rs 5 lakh for themselves. Their son, M Satish, after taking the money, purchased three acres of land in Machapuram village of Geesugonda mandal. However, for the past six months, the accused had been pressuring his parents to transfer the remaining Rs 5 lakh to him, even threatening them. The parents transferred the money to their daughter's bank account for safekeeping. Despite being repeatedly told by his parents that it was difficult for them to survive without that money, Satish went to their house and drenched his mother in petrol. As the smell of petrol wafted through the air, Vinoda got alerted and attempted to stop her son. Satish, however, lit a matchstick and set his mother on fire. Hearing the elderly couple's screams, neighbours rushed to the residence and doused the flames. In the incident, about 50% of Vinoda's body was burned. She was immediately taken to the hospital, where doctors are currently trying their best to save her.'We are monitoring the patient in the critical care unit and are trying our best to save her,' the doctors said.

Class X student kidnapped and sold for Rs 10,000 in Telangana's Adilabad, repeatedly raped

ADILABAD: Close on the heels of the Asifabad police busting a gang involved in trafficking a tribal woman, the Adilabad police on Saturday disclosed that they have arrested three persons, including the couple who kidnapped a Class X student, and the man from Rajasthan who 'bought' her for Rs 10,000, confined her in his home and repeatedly raped her. Adilabad Deputy Superintendent of Police L Jeevan Reddy said the girl, who is under 16 years of age, was kidnapped by Nirmala Bapunya Atram (47) and her husband Bapunya Rajaram Atram (49), both residents of Kinhi village in Yavatmal district, Maharashtra. The couple allegedly sold the girl to Karan alias Bhagwat Menon of Rajasthan for Rs 10,000. A case of kidnapping and human trafficking has been registered at Bhimpur police station against the three accused. According to Jeevan Reddy, the Class X student was living at her relatives' house. On June 2, Nirmala and Bapunya, who had recently moved to the village, reportedly lured her on the pretext of taking her to a function. They took her to Kinhi in Maharashtra, then to Nagpur by bus, and from there to Kota, Rajasthan, by train. She was subsequently taken to an unidentified village and handed over to Karan. The girl's mother and maternal uncle searched for her at the houses of several relatives before lodging a complaint at Bhimpur police station on June 22. Hearing about this, Nirmala and Bapunya alerted Karan. Karan handed the girl to Nirmala the next day, and she brought the girl back home on June 25. During the investigation, police found that Karan was already married. The accused were arrested at the railway station while attempting to flee. Police seized a mobile phone and Rs 2,000 in cash from them. Jeevan Reddy stated that strict action would be taken against human traffickers.
