New Delhi. In the story of Peethadhishwar Dhirendra Shastri of Baba Bageshwar Dham, a stampede-like situation occurred at the VIP entry gate, due to which more than half a dozen women were injured. This incident happened when many people were not given entry despite having VIP passes. This led to an argument between the people and the security personnel and the situation soon worsened. Chandrakala Somani, among the injured women, said, “We had VIP passes, but we were thrown out. If there was no seating arrangement, why were so many passes issued?” People angry over the incident have accused the organizing committee of disorganization.

Katha organizer Sant Kathiawale Baba Mahant Banwarisharan also expressed concern over the incident and said, “Security is the job of the administration, but the arbitrariness being done regarding the pass is wrong.” Committee coordinator Ashish said that this chaos has happened due to many duplicate passes being made.
Baba Bageshwar also appealed to the youth and said, “Just like you run for selfies, you should get fame so that people run after you. The Darbar is only to unite Hindus and not to display any accomplishment.”
