Six pilgrims died in Mauritius on Sunday when a fire broke out during a religious ritual to mark a Hindu festival, police said.
The blaze erupted when a wooden and bamboo cart displaying figurines of Hindu deities caught fire after coming into contact with exposed electrical wires.
The tragedy occurred on Sunday, casting a shadow over the preparations for the Hindu festival of Maha Shivaratri.
