Tragedy Strikes: Deadly Stampede in India Due to Overcrowding and Lack of Exits

In a heart-wrenching incident at a religious festival in Northern India, a deadly stampede claimed the lives of at least 121 people. The tragedy unfolded due to a combination of factors, including massive overcrowding, insufficient exits, and treacherous, slippery mud.
