Ambulances stranded as Speaker’s son’s birthday procession jams Morena roads:Newborn with heart problem stuck in traffic; SDM unavailable, BJP claim no involvement

In Morena, a procession taken out on the birthday of Prabal Pratap Singh Tomar, son of Madhya Pradesh Assembly Speaker Narendra Singh Tomar, caused a traffic jam. Two ambulances remained stuck in it for several hours. One ambulance was carrying a newborn baby to Jaipur due to a hole in its heart. Prabal Pratap Singh Tomar’s birthday was on October 3. On this occasion, his supporters took out a large procession. Which started from Asmani Mata Temple in his village Orethi and went up to the PWD Rest House at Barrier Chauraha in Morena. This distance was about 50 kilometers. During this, rules were openly flouted. After the video of the jam caused by the procession surfaced, the BJP District President called it a private event. Meanwhile, the SDM who granted permission for the event did not answer the phone. Ambulances remained stuck, newborn patient had to wait
Ramcharitra Pippal, the ambulance driver of the district hospital, said that he had to take a one-month-old newborn baby to SMS Hospital in Jaipur for admission. The ambulance driver said- The child has a hole in the heart. He was immediately referred, but we were stuck for hours due to the procession. There was another ambulance with me, it also stopped. Sir, don’t ask about the jam, these are big leaders, they can do anything. Both BJP and administration disassociated themselves from the event
Both the district administration and the BJP have disassociated themselves from the chaos caused by the procession taken out for the Assembly Speaker’s son’s birthday. BJP District President Kamlesh Kushwah said that this was not a BJP program, nor was any permission taken from the party. This was organized by his supporters at a private level. Meanwhile, Morena ADM Ashwani Kumar Rawat said that permission is not given at our level, this is the work of the SDM office. I have no information about this program.” SDM could not be contacted
When the Dainik Bhaskar team tried to contact SDM Bhupendra Singh Kushwah regarding permission for this rally, he did not pick up the phone. Even after calling several times, he disconnected the call and avoided responding. People said – Are laws only for common citizens?
People have also expressed anger over the chaos caused by the procession. People say that during the processions on the road, administrative control was completely absent. Ambulances carrying sick patients kept getting stuck in the procession, but no leader or organizer paid attention. Are laws only for common citizens, and not for leaders and their families?
