A religious festival in northern India ended in tragedy when a crowd crush killed at least 121 people, mostly women, and injured 35 others in Mughal Garhi village, Uttar Pradesh. Overcrowding at a sermon led to the deadly incident as female devotees rushed to touch the feet of Bhole Baba, a self-styled godman. Police are investigating the organizers, noting that a quarter of a million people attended, far exceeding expectations, with inadequate police presence. Eyewitnesses and relatives blamed carelessness for the tragedy.
