An eyewitness present at the spot said that there was a huge crowd at the time of the incident. We were all standing in line. Meanwhile, a Kanwadiya got into a fight with a shopkeeper selling flowers and garlands over something.
Soon both of them started hitting each other with sticks, due to which the devotees standing in the line started running back and people started falling on each other. The people who fell did not get a chance to get up, due to which many people died and many people were injured.
The eyewitness said that the incident took place near the flower shop located at the top of the temple premises. This incident happened because of the shopkeeper and the Kanwaria using sticks.
