Ten devotees travelling to Maha Kumbh were killed after a car collided with a bus in Uttar Pradesh’s Prayagraj. 19 people were injured in the accident in Meja area on the Prayagraj-Mirzapur highway when the Bolero car collided with the bus.<\/p>\n
The devotees were travelling from Chhattisgarh’s Korba district to take a dip at the Sangam, a confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna and mythical Saraswati rivers. The Bolero carrying the devotees collided with the bus that was travelling from Madhya Pradesh’s Rajgarh district.<\/p>\n
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister took cognisance of the accident and directed officials to expedite relief work, while also ensuring proper treatment of the injured.<\/p>\n
Earlier this week, seven Andhra Pradesh pilgrims returning from Maha Kumbh died and two other sustained injuries after a mini-bus in which they were travelling collided with a truck in Madhya Pradesh’s Jabalpur district.<\/p>\n
Among the most tragic of accidents was on January 29 when thirty people were killed in the stampede that happened just before dawn at the Maha Kumbh venue. Twenty-five bodies have been identified, police officer Vaibhav Krishna told reporters, adding 60 were injured.<\/p>\n
The pre-dawn stampede at the Sangam area of the Maha Kumbh broke out after many pilgrims jostled for space to take a holy dip on the occasion of Mauni Amavasya, one of the most auspicious days. Many people started breaking barricades before the stampede happened, the police officer said.<\/p>\n
The Maha Kumbh began on January 13 and will end on February 26. On\u00a0<\/p>\n
