Self-styled ‘godman’ Bhole Baba said on Wednesday that he is very disturbed by the Hathras stampede but nobody can avoid what is destined and everyone has to die one day. “Honee ko kaun taal sakta hai (nobody can avoid what has to happen),” he said, a fortnight after 121 people died in a stampede at a ‘satsang’ held by him. “Jo aaya hai use ek din to jaana bhi hai, bhale hee koi aagey peechey ho,” he added. Bhole Baba, also known as Narayan Sakar Hari whose original name is Suraj Pal, also repeated the claim made earlier by him through his lawyer A.P. Singh said Bhole Baba has reached his ashram at Bahadur Nagar village in Kasganj.
