Mumbai:
One person was killed and 11 others injured when a stampede broke out at the Kalina ground in Mumbai on Monday where a police recruitment drive was being held.
Thousands of youth from various parts of the state were waiting outside the ground to take part in the recruitment drive for 3,600 vacant posts of police constables, police said.
As soon as the gates of the ground opened, the youth rushed in. They jumped over barricades set up on the ground and several of them fell on each other during the melee, leaving one dead and 11 others injured.
Additional Police Commissioner Amitabh Gupta has been asked to probe the incident.
