Overview
- Police said the post-mortem was conducted according to rules and that the case remains under investigation.
- The family reported no ambulance or hearse was available, so they transported the body by motorcycle to Sato Ghat in Mohabbatpur Jeeta.
- A video of the transport circulated widely online and was shared by Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav, who criticized the state government.
- District magistrate Madhusudan Hulgi directed officials to file a detailed report and indicated further action would follow the review.
- Hindustan Times noted it had not independently verified the video, and reports cited a similar 2018 incident in Tikamgarh to underscore persistent service gaps.
