Festival Di India Makan Korban Lagi, 3 Orang Die Berdesakan

Three people died and six people were injured as they were squeezed into a jostling event in eastern India.

"Three people were killed and six injured, none serious and all of them are not in danger," Odisha State Police Director General YB Khuraina told Reuters on Monday, June 30.

The incident occurred when thousands of Hindus gathered at an annual war train festival in Puri.

Crowds of people often occur during large Hindu gatherings in the country with the most population in the world, as large crowds gather in narrow places, often ignoring safety protocols.

In January, 39 people died in crowds during Maha Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj, northern India.
