NEW DELHI: A day after a deadly stampede at the New Delhi Railway Station claimed 18 lives, the station remained overcrowded on Sunday, with thousands of passengers struggling to board trains amid heavy rush.
Despite additional measures, the influx of passengers -- several of them Maha Kumbh pilgrims travelling to Prayagraj -- has continued with the sheer volume of travellers making the situation difficult to handle for authorities.
The stampede occurred at around 10 pm on Saturday when a surge of passengers, confused by a mix-up in train announcements, rushed toward platform 16 via a narrow stairway.
