💨 Abstract

A committee investigating the stampede at a temple festival in North Goa discovered that a similar incident occurred on a smaller scale at the same event last year, and the area was accident-prone. Six people were killed, and over 70 were injured in the stampede that occurred when thousands of devotees crowded the narrow lanes leading to the Goddess Sree Lairai Devi temple during an annual festival.
