Stampede at soy procurement centre at PACS in Nirmal, 10 injured

Ten women were injured, including two who suffered leg fractures, in a stampede that occurred during the distribution of tokens for soybean procurement at the Primary Agriculture Cooperative Society in Kubheer mandal on Saturday.

According to villagers, two elderly women sustained fractures, while eight



others suffered minor injuries when the crowd surged forward as tokens were being issued.

Since morning, a large number of farmers, including men and women, had formed long queues to sell their soybean produce at the centre. The situation turned chaotic as they jostled for tokens, leading to the stampede.
