In September 2017, overcrowding on the foot-over bridge connecting
Elphinstone Road and Parel stations in Mumbai caused a stampede in which
several innocent commuters died.
What angered Mumbaikars was the fact that many earlier requests to augment the capacity of the foot-over bridge, and warnings of a stampede during peak hours in Mumbai's local train crush, were ignored.
Here’s what happened on the fateful day and how a new bridge was built in short notice by the Army.
