At least 17 people have died and another 24 were injured today, Saturday, in eastern India after a stampede during a religious gathering, believed to have been caused by a sudden downpour during the Durga Puja festival in Kolkata. The weather conditions and the rush led to many attendees falling, with six bodies identified so far. This incident recalls previous tragedies during the Kumbh Mela festival, which resulted in 30 deaths and injuries.
