Stampede kills 100 people in India.

A stampede kills a hundred people in India. Reports state that there were more than two thousand five hundred people trying to get up to the hilltop temple when the stampede broke out. The pilgrims were going to the temple to pray because it was the first day of a religious festival in India. The temple stampedes are not unusual because a month ago a hundred and thirty people were killed because they were trying to flee the same temple after false rumors were passed that there was a landslide. In January last year two hundred and fifty people were killed in a pilgrimage in Maharashtra.
