Among those who attended were some persons from Telangana. Of them, six have died. Two in Gandhi Hospital, one each in Apollo, Global Hospital, Nizamabad and in Gadwal. In the appeal on behalf of the chief minister, it has been said that special teams under the collectors have been constituted to identify those persons who came in contact with the deceased.
