Our thoughts are with the families and friends of those affected by this tragic event. The Maha Kumbh, a significant religious gathering, has seen millions of people come together for spiritual enlightenment. However, this unfortunate incident serves as a stark reminder of the need for road safety and responsible driving, especially during such large-scale events.
