Lack of crowd management by the police resulted in overcrowding at the nimajjanam venue. There were no proper arrangements made. Chaotic scenes were witnessed as people crowded the place. The police should have done more to ensure the safety of devotees, said a person who had come to take part in the Nimajjanam. My heart goes out to the injured woman, said a devotee at tank bund.
