20.6.2013 (UNI) Allahabad High Court directed principal secretary (medical and health) to provide necessary treatment to the Maha Kumbh devotees, who were injured during stampede at Allahabad railway station.

The bench consisting of Justices Arun Tandon and Vipin Sinha passed this order on the petition of Prakash Khanna of Delhi, who was also injured in the stampede.

In the petition, he alleged that they were subject to ignorance at Swaroop Rani hospital in Allahabad. They were neither getting free medicines nor food at the hospital, besides they were not being attended properly by the medicos.

The court has asked principal secretary (medical and health) to resolve the matter in two weeks and ensure them necessary medical help.
