More than 10 people were injured in a “stampede-like situation” at New Delhi railway station on Saturday, ANI news agency reported, citing police sources.
Indian railways later dismissed talk of a stampede as “a rumor” but confirmed that an undisclosed number of people had been injured and taken to hospital.
“Railway Police and Delhi Police have reached the station. The situation is under control, and the injured have been taken to the hospital,” Indian railways told ANI.
Dozens of people were killed in a pre-dawn stampede at the Kumbh festival in northern India late last month after tens of millions of Hindus gathered to take a dip in sacred river waters on the most auspicious day of a six-week festival.
