The forgotten history behind Mothers' Day
Did you know the woman who created Mother’s Day eventually grew to hate what the celebration had become?
This special report covers the tragic stampede at the Venkateswara Swamy temple in Srikakulam, Andhra Pradesh, which claimed nine lives, including eight women and a child. The incident has sparked a political firestorm, with the TDP government, led by Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu, facing intense scrutiny, and key figures like Sanjay Sahay, Pattabhi Ram Komareddy, and Margani Bharat Ram debating accountability. YSRCP's Margani Bharat Ram stated, 'This tragedy is complete the failure of this coalition government. It's complete sheer negligence of Mr. Chandrababu Naidu.' []. The government has attributed the incident to the temple being a private, under-construction entity that failed to inform authorities about the large Ekadashi gathering. This defence is heavily contested by the opposition and analysts, who point to a severe intelligence and crowd management failure, especially as this is the second deadly temple stampede in the state in 2025.
