At least 102 people were killed and more than 300 others injured in the Puttingal temple tragedy in Kerala.
Kochi: The Kerala High Court on Friday dismissed bail application of 41 accused including office bearers, contractors and workers of Puttingal temple in connection with the fireworks tragedy that occurred in April 10.
The HC granted bail to only two people who were distributors after investigators failed to substantiate their involvement in the tragedy.
"Fireworks on religious event should be banned and the government should act immediately in to the matter," the HC said.
The court while terming the local administration 'irresponsible', blamed the police and revenue officials for the tragedy.
At least 102 people have been killed and more than 300 others have been injured in the tragedy.
