’Two trains having same initial Prayagraj…’: Police REVEALS New Delhi Railway Station stampede cause





The Delhi Police revealed details of the investigation into the New Delhi Railway Station stampede on Sunday. The Delhi Police said the incident happened because of the “confusion” over the announcement of the trains “having the same initial name starting with ‘Prayagraj’.”

“The announcement of the Prayagraj Special arriving at Platform 16 led to confusion because the Prayagraj Express was already at Platform 14. People who couldn’t reach to their train at Platform 14 thought their train was arriving at Platform 16 leading to the stampede. Additionally, there were 4 trains heading to Prayagraj, out of which 3 were delayed, causing unexpected overcrowding,” the Delhi Police said.
