In a shocking road mishap amid dense fog, Mathura’s celebrated ‘Farsa Wale Baba’—saint Chandrashekhar—lost his life on Saturday in Kosikalan. The accident, involving a grocery-laden container he had halted and a rear-ending truck carrying wires, has left the region on edge.
Social media exploded with unverified claims tying the tragedy to illegal cow transport, fueling unrest. Mathura police promptly intervened via a post on X, debunking these falsehoods. ‘Absolutely no link to gau hatya or cattle trafficking. Such rumors are baseless and dangerous,’ they declared.
Citizens were warned against disseminating unconfirmed news online, with promises of severe penalties for rumor-mongers. A case of rash driving has been filed, and probes are in full swing.
Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath, taking note, instructed strict measures against those responsible. His directive reinforces zero tolerance for negligence on roads and disruptions to public order.
As political voices amplify calls for better highway safety and protection for vigilantes, the focus remains on factual reporting. Baba’s fervent campaigns against cow trafficking endeared him to many, and his untimely death serves as a grim reminder of foggy winter perils. Police vigilance is ensuring tensions don’t boil over, prioritizing community harmony.
