A stampede occurred during a Hindu festival in Kolkata, resulting in at least 19 fatalities and 25 injuries[2–5, 9]. The incident happened when a misleading announcement prompted people to leave the pandal, fearing it could collapse[8]. Seven individuals have been remanded to police custody in connection with the incident[1, 7, 10]. The Chief Minister of West Bengal reviewed the crowd control measures in place[1].
