Why stampede Is Trending Today?

Eight people died and over 30 were injured in a stampede at Haridwar's Mansa Devi Temple, triggered by a false alarm of electricity leakage. The temple reopened with enhanced security, and both Uttarakhand and Uttar Pradesh CMs announced Rs 2 lakh aid for the victims' families. A probe is ongoing.

In Puri, Odisha, a stampede during Rath Yatra resulted in multiple fatalities and injuries. Congress demands accountability, survivors criticize crowd management, and an inquiry is underway.
