There was a stampede during Mahakumbh
The announcements of trains going to Prayagraj during Mahakumbh had led to a huge confusion among the New Delhi railway station passengers due to the alleged mismanagement. Due to this, there was a stampede on 15 February. Officials had said that 18 people were killed in the incident, but Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnav did not disclose the number of casualties during the Parliament session earlier this month.
