According to the Office of the Relief Commissioner, the number of people injured and admitted to the hospital in Tuesday’s incident stands at 28.
Of the total fatalities, 19 are yet to be identified, it said.
The followers of the Narayan Sakar Hari, the godman, had thrown the slippers and other belongings of victims in nearby fields with standing crops to hide evidence of a stampede, UP Police said in the FIR.
