Allahabad, Feb 11: Grief seems to be giving way to rage among survivors of the Allahabad Railway Station stampede here as officials today faced a tough time pacifying family members of those declared dead or undergoing treatment for injuries.
At the Swaroop Rani Nehru Hospital in the city where at least 25 injured persons are admitted, some of them in a critical condition, divisional commissioner of Allahabad Devesh Chaturvedi and Dr SP Singh, Principal of Motilal Nehru Medical College to which the hospital is attached, were gheraoed by people angry over "lack of proper care and facilities".
The officials, who had visited the hospital to take stock of the relief work, had a tough time assuaging the frayed tempers.
Some of the bereaved people complained teary-eyed that they were being prevented from taking away the bodies of their near and dear ones.
