Swing Tragedy at Surajkund Mela Sparks Political Outcry

Senior AAP leader Anurag Dhanda has accused the Haryana government of negligence following the Surajkund swing tragedy that claimed the life of a police inspector and injured 12 others. The 'Tsunami' swing collapsed during the Surajkund International Self-Reliant Crafts Mela, causing widespread shock and condemnation.
