Prayagraj: Before departing from the grand Prayagraj Mahakumbh, Yati Narsinghanand Giri, the Peethadhishwar of Shivshakti Dham Dasna and Mahamandaleshwar of Shri Panchdashnam Juna Akhara, made a significant claim regarding the stampede that occurred on Mauni Amavasya. Before leaving, he sent a blood-written letter to Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath from the religious flag of Shri Panchdashnam Juna Akhara.
In his letter, he expressed his displeasure, stating, “The inhuman behavior of your shameless, corrupt, and insensitive officials towards Hindus on Mauni Amavasya has compelled me to write this letter. It is deeply painful and distressing to see how these dishonest and extremely selfish officials can deceive people.”
Demand for a Change in Arms License Policy
Yati Narsinghanand further wrote that while no religious Hindu doubts the CM’s dedication and wisdom regarding Sanatan Dharma, his reliance on corrupt and self-serving police and administrative officials is shattering the hopes of Hindus. He claimed that these officials are oppressing Hindu society in every possible way, portraying the CM as a villain in the eyes of Hindus. According to him, corruption among officials has crossed all limits.
He urged CM Yogi Adityanath to revise the arms license policy and grant every Hindu the right to possess a weapon to protect their sisters and daughters. “If you do this, the Hindu society will never forget this favor of yours. Otherwise, what is happening to Hindus in Bangladesh today will soon happen to us too,” he warned.
Tragic Incident on Mauni Amavasya
It is important to note that a stampede occurred on the night of January 29, 2025, at 1 AM during the Mauni Amavasya celebrations. The government reported that 30 people lost their lives, and 36 others were injured in the tragic event.
