The station in the Indian capital was heavily overcrowded due to the large number of travellers on their way to the world’s largest pilgrimage, Maha Kumbh Mela. Ten others were injured and taken to a nearby hospital. Prime Minister Narendra Modi said he was “distressed” by the stampede. “Distressed by the stampede at New Delhi Railway Station. My thoughts are with all those who have lost their loved ones. I pray that the injured have a speedy recovery,” Modi wrote on X. “My thoughts are with all those who have lost their loved ones. I pray that the injured have a speedy recovery. “The authorities are assisting all those who have been affected by this stampede.” At the end of January, a stampede during the Kashi Mela pilgrimage festival in the northern Indian city of Prayagraj killed at least 30 people on the festival grounds on the banks of the Ganges in the state of Uttar Pradesh, according to the information at the time. The centrepiece of the six-week festival is the ritual bathing at the point where the Ganges and Yamuna merge with the mythical Saraswati river. Such incidents occur regularly at India’s major religious festivals.
