Jagannath Rath Yatra: Three killed, over 50 injured in stampede outside Puri's Gundicha temple
BHUBANESWAR/ PURI: Three devotees, including two women, lost their lives and six others sustained injuries in a stampede that broke out in front of the Gundicha Temple in Puri during the early hours of Sunday. The incident occurred between 3:30 am and 4:30 am after the chariot-pulling ritual of the Rath Yatra concluded and all three chariots were parked in front of the Gundicha Temple. According to officials, two victims died on the spot, while the third succumbed to injuries at the hospital. Puri Collector Sidharth Shankar Swain confirmed the deaths to the media, stating that six others were admitted to the Puri district headquarters hospital. Three of them have since been discharged. The deceased were identified as Basanti Sahu (36) of Bolagarh, Pravati Das (45) of Balipatna, and Prema Kant Mohanty (78) of Khurda. How it happened The tragedy unfolded when the morning rituals known as pahada bhanga began, drawing a sudden surge of devotees eager to catch a glimpse of the deities atop the chariots. The crowd swelled in front of Lord Jagannath's chariot, Nandighosa, resulting in people falling over each other in the chaos. Eyewitnesses reported that local residents were the first to respond, helping transport the injured to nearby hospitals. Several people slammed the poor crowd control measures in place, especially given the overnight congregation of pilgrims. The situation spiraled out of control when the pahada bhanga ritual commenced. Law Minister Prithiviraj Harichandan is reported to have briefed Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi on the incident, while Director General of Police Y.B. Khurania rushed to Puri to assess the situation. On Saturday, the three chariots had reached Gundicha Temple at around 1:30 pm after resuming the chariot-pulling that had remained incomplete the previous day. Authorities had already acknowledged that this year's Rath Yatra witnessed 1.5 times the usual number of attendees. Sources said the Shree Jagannath Temple Administration had decided to conduct the Adapa Mandap Bije rituals on Sunday, which meant the deities remained atop the chariots overnight. 'Generally, pahada is not performed at night since a large number of devotees gather to see the deities atop the chariots. However, the ritual was conducted between 1:30 am and 2:00 am. News of early morning darshan led to a sudden influx of pilgrims that overwhelmed the available security and crowd control measures,' said sources. Family members of one of the victims expressed their anger over the alleged mismanagement. 'We reached Gundicha Temple after 3:30 am and there was a massive rush. But there were no police personnel to control the crowd. I lost my wife only because of the authorities' negligence,' said the grieving kin. Locals also reported that a truck carrying ladders used for the chariots arrived near the temple just as the crowd was swelling, adding to the chaos.

‘Cybercriminals using Tripura as corridor, mobile networks have become more dangerous than AK series rifles': CM Manik Saha
Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha Saturday directed the police to strongly tackle the menace of cybercrime, stating that cyber criminals were trying to use the state as a corridor. While inaugurating a cybercrime police station at Arundhatinagar on the outskirts of Agartala, CM Saha said, 'Cybercrime is a matter of discussion in recent times. Many people lost everything after becoming victims of cybercrime. Cybercriminals are negatively using technology.' He added that mobile networks have become more dangerous than the AK series rifles. 'We talk about the benefits of Artificial Intelligence (AI), but it has negative effects too. The fraudsters can use AI against innocent people. People have to be more careful to keep themselves safe from fraudulent activities,' Saha further said. Reacting to the Opposition's allegation of breakdown in the law-and-order system in the state, the chief minister said, 'When they (Opposition) see that law and order is good here, then something opposite has to be said… People from elsewhere are coming to the state for jobs or business, as the law-and-order system is good here.' On tackling drugs, the chief minister said, 'If we speak about drugs, compared to last year, we could make 106 per cent more seizures. In the case of destruction, it is 132 per cent. The Opposition should back their claim with data. People are not fools. What happened during the Congress regime? What happened during the CPI(M) regime?' Addressing the same event, Director General of Police (DGP) Anurag said the state has witnessed a 20 per cent reduction in crime in 2024 compared to 2023.
