The stampede incident in Puri happened on 29th June outside the Sri Gundicha temple. The chariots of Lord Jagannath and his siblings were outside the Sri Gundicha temple to go back from the Gundicha temple to the Jagannath temple, when a huge crowd of devotees gathered there, causing a stampede. After the stampede, the then District Magistrate and SP of Puri were suspended. The investigation started the very next day of the incident.
