At least 15 people, including 10 women and three children, were killed in a crowd crush at New Delhi's main railway station. The incident occurred late Saturday night when delays to two train services led to overcrowding. Many of those in the crowd are thought to have been heading to the Maha Kumbh Mela festival.
