Congress MP Rahul Gandhi and Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav had to cut short their joint public rally in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, due to a 'stampede-like' situation. The rally, which was attended by a large crowd, became uncontrollable, leading to safety concerns. According to Revati Raman Singh, father of Congress candidate Ujjwal Raman Singh, there was insufficient police presence to manage the crowd, resulting in the leaders leaving the stage without giving their speeches.
