Leader of opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, on Friday emphasized the need for swift compensation for the victims of the Hathras stampede, which tragically claimed over 100 lives. Gandhi pointed out lapses in the administration but refrained from politicizing the issue.
In his address to reporters after meeting the victims' families, Gandhi expressed grief over the loss and urged Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath to expedite the compensation process. 'It is crucial that the compensation reaches the families without delay,' said Gandhi.
He also noted that most of the victims were poor and emphasized the urgency of providing financial assistance. 'Compensation should be given as soon as possible to benefit the affected families,' he added.
