In one of worst tragedies in Rajasthan, at least 103 people, mostly men, were killed and about 30 injured in a stampede that took place when thousands of devotees gathered at a 15th century temple here on the occasion of Navaratri festival on Tuesday. The worshippers had gathered at the Chamunda Devi Temple situated on a hill top in the precincts of Mehrangarh Fort when the tragedy struck at around 5.30 am after some devotees slipped on a slope causing the stampede.
