BHOPAL: Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi was stunned on Thursday after a victim of the October 13 Ratangarh temple stampede in Datia, narrated her ordeal and alleged how police threw her into the river during the tragedy.

Some of the victims claimed that the doctors and officers of district administration were trying to discharge them forcefully. A visibly agitated Gandhi expressed his unhappiness over the complaints and asked the doctors to take steps for better arrangement.

He reached Datia district hospital and met five victims and their relatives who were injured in the stampede.

During his nearly 10-minute visit to district hospital, Rahul Gandhi, Union minister Jyotiraditya Scindia and other Congress leaders, inquired about the condition of those undergoing treatment in the general and emergency wards from their families and doctors. He promised the victims and their families all possible help.

A few victims told him that they haven't received the promised treatment yet. Gandhi was originally scheduled to reach here at 9.30am. It was re-scheduled to 2.45pm, but due to a last minute change in his plans, he reached Datia district hospital at around 5.30am from Gwalior.

After spending around a few minutes in the general ward there, he went to the emergency room where he spoke to patients and their relatives.

"I was pushed into the river by the police, and I suffered injuries in my back and shoulders," Sirku Bai, 60 resident of Datia told Rahul. Gandhi asked doctors to refer her to Gwalior for further treatment.

Another survivor, Bhagwan Singh, complained of inadequate medical facilities at the hospital. Gandhi directed doctors to ensure that none of the victims faced any problems during medical treatment.

"Thoda dhyan se dekheye, ye Rahul Gandhi hain (Please look carefully he is Rahul Gandhi)," Scindia was quoted as saying by an official accompanying him during Gandhi's visit to the hospital.

46 of those injured in the tragedy have been admitted in the hospital at Datia while others are undergoing treatment in Gwalior. There were also a few who got themselves re-admitted a few hours before Gandhi's scheduled visit. Rahul also met medicos and inquired about the facilities besides status of the victims.

The MP government on Tuesday constituted a judicial commission to probe the stampede at Ratangarh in Datia district, which claimed the lives of 120 people from the state and neighbouring UP.
