A fire broke out in 15 tents at the Maha Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, on Thursday morning near Chatnag Ghat. Firefighters struggled to reach the site due to a lack of access roads but managed to douse the flames in time. No casualties or injuries were reported. This incident follows a tragic stampede in the Sangam area on Wednesday that left 30 dead and over 60 injured. Earlier, on January 19, a fire broke out at the Sector 19 campsite after a gas cylinder explosion. Authorities are monitoring safety measures at the religious gathering.
