25 people died in an accident involving a private bus at Pimpalkhuta in Buldhana district on Samruddhi Highway. While the government system is investigating the various causes of the accident, the Swami Samarth spiritual center has placed Mahamrityunjaya Yantra at the site of the accident and chanted the Mahamrityunjaya Mantra half a million times to prevent an accident from happening.
Nilesh Adhav, central representative of Swami Samarth spiritual center has also made claim that there will be no accidents within five kilometers due to Yantra. Also claimed that there will be no death in case of any accident.
Dr. Hamid Dabholkar of Andhashraddha Nirmoolan Samiti objected and demanded action against Swami Samarth spiritual center. He said Claiming divine miracles and deceiving people is a crime in maharashtra.
