Every time a policeman walked to the mortuary gate at Gandhi Hospital and called out a name, one could see the deep sorrow in the eyes of the co-villagers and relatives of the Bhoiguda fire accident victims.
“Who among you can identify Damodar come with me,” an officer shouted, and the calls continued till about a dozen acquaintances or co-workers were escorted to identify the victims who got charred in the accident.
As soon as news of the tragedy spread, workers from Bihar reached Hyderabad and assembled outside the mortuary where the bodies were kept for post-mortem. Police had informed them to be present there for identification of the bodies.
