Allahabad: Over two dozen people have been reportedly feared dead in a stampede that broke out at platform number 6 of the Allahabad Railway station on Sunday evening when pilgrims were going back to their places after the Shahi Snan on the pious occasion of Mauni Amavasya.

At least 50 people are reportedly injured in the stampede.
