A massive stampede erupted during Pandit Pradeep Mishra’s Katha event in Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, as chaos unfolded at Shatabdi Nagar.
Around one lakh attendees crowded the venue, leading to the unfortunate incident when private security tried to restrict entry for women.
Authorities, including ADG Dhruv Kant Thakur, confirmed no fatalities or injuries but highlighted the overwhelming challenges in managing the crowd.
This incident comes months after the tragic Hathras stampede in July that claimed 121 lives.
