'BJP Only Did Marketing, No Preparation': 'Fiery' Politics Erupts Over Fire at Maha Kumbh Mela

On a regular day around 10-15 lakh people are estimated to be visiting the mela. Another 50 to 60 lakh people are estimated to be staying in Maha Kumbh Nagar, taking the total number of people present at the mela on any given day to 65-70 lakh.
The article discusses the political controversy surrounding a fire at the Maha Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj, where a massive fire broke out in the 'Magh Mela' tent city, destroying around 400 makeshift shops. The opposition, particularly the Samajwadi Party, has criticized the BJP government for inadequate preparation and focusing more on marketing the event rather than ensuring safety. SP leader Akhilesh Yadav accused the BJP of negligence, pointing out that despite the event's scale, there was a lack of proper fire safety measures. In response, BJP leaders defended their administration, stating that the fire was quickly contained and no lives were lost, attributing the incident to an accidental spark from cooking. The incident has sparked a debate on the management and safety protocols at large public gatherings, with political parties using it to score points ahead of upcoming elections.
