Emergency personnel transported all six victims to Sanjay Gandhi Hospital for medical attention.

Doctors pronounced four victims dead upon arrival, while medical teams admitted the remaining two for treatment.

DCP Singh confirmed that police had initiated legal proceedings in connection with the incident. He stated that authorities were pursuing the accused and expected to apprehend them soon.
