A tragic incident unfolded in Roshanpur village when Rampal, a 40-year-old pilgrim from Bareilly, experienced severe health issues during his spiritual journey. Taken to the hospital, Rampal's condition worsened, leading to his untimely demise, according to ASP Vinay Singh.
The death triggered unrest among the kanwariyas, with demands for accountability against Dr. Rishipal, who reportedly treated Rampal. Authorities stepped in to calm the situation, and a formal complaint, filed by the deceased's brother Satpal, resulted in legal action.
Despite the tragedy, the determined group of kanwariyas resumed their pilgrimage to Haridwar, continuing their devotion amid the painful loss of their fellow traveler.
