It also says that the organisers did not take permission for the event.
The preliminary investigation report by the Allahabad Commissioner on the ashram stampede that killed 63 people clearly blames local administration and ashram authorities. The Report says the local administration did not take proper control of the situation before and after the incident.
The report says that the authorities should have deployed more staff to control entry and exit points of the temple ground. The report also says that the ground was not large enough to accommodate ten thousand people and that the Kripalu Trust did not seek permission to hold the event.
The final report, to be submitted next week, is likely to recommend action against the local administration at the sub-divisional level.
