Jul 2, 2024, 12:40 PM
A tragic stampede at a religious event in Hathras, Uttar Pradesh, on Tuesday, July 2, has resulted in the deaths of at least 27 people, with the toll expected to rise. The incident occurred during the closing ceremony of a satsang in Mughalgarhi village. Initial reports indicate that the majority of the victims were women and children. Authorities fear the death toll could climb to 90, with over 150 people hospitalized. The cause of the stampede remains unclear, with some attributing it to heat and humidity, while others suggest it was due to a rush to receive blessings from a self-proclaimed godman who organized the event.
