Hathras Stampede: Congress President Kharge Raises 'Hathras' Issue in Parliament, Blames Govt.

Rajya Sabha Opposition Leader Mallikarjun Kharge proposed enacting a law to address "fake" godmen and prevent Hathras-like stampedes. This suggestion followed Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar's obituary reference to the Hathras incident. Dhankhar indicated a potential discussion in the next session on avoiding such tragedies, with the ruling side considering legislation. Kharge highlighted the lack of regulations for religious gatherings organized by godmen, emphasizing the need for rules on venue selection, area requirements, access control, and proximity to medical facilities. #RajyaSabha #MallikarjunKharge #Kharge #HathrasStampede #Hathrashorror #Hathrasnews #Stampedenews #Indianews #Politics #Oneindia #Oneindianews
