A Sawan pilgrimage turned tragic in Bihar’s Lakhisarai district as at least seven devotees died and over a dozen were injured in a stampede-like situation outside Ashok Dham Temple on Monday. The crowd surged after two trains arrived, an electric cable fell, and a rumour of a live wire sparked panic. Barricades collapsed within two minutes. Bihar CM Samrat Choudhary announced ₹4 lakh aid for each deceased family. PM Modi expressed grief. A probe has been ordered.
