The stampede occurred while the religious preacher was addressing his followers in a specially erected tent in Rati Bhanpur village of Sikandra Rau area of ​​Katras district, Hindustan Times reported.

According to the police, it appears that the lack of oxygen at the venue, on a very hot and humid day, caused discomfort among people attending the religious event and they began to flee in panic, leading to a stampede.

According to one of the survivors, the stampede occurred at the end of the religious gathering as everyone was in a hurry to leave the gathering place.

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has ordered emergency services to speed up aid delivery.
