According to police, more than three thousand devotees had gathered at Gurpa Hill for sightseeing and prayers late on Saturday. The weather suddenly changed and amidst loud thunder and downpour, lightning struck the temple complex at the summit and the area near the narrow Andheria-Dhandheria cave where people ran and took shelter under trees. Following the strike, some people collapsed at the spot. Vikas Kumar alias Niwas, 24, a resident of Chhatisa village under Belaganj police station area, died and three others were injured by the lightning strike in temple campus while 21 people suffered burns near the cave. Block development officer Shashi Bhushan Sahu and SHO Shivnanadan Kumar reached the scene which was approximately 2,500 feet high by scaling 1,680 steps, the only way to reach the site. Policemen and locals assisted the injured down the hill. Rain and the mountain's rugged, steep terrain caused significant difficulties for the rescue efforts.
