Police in India are investigating the cause of a crush that killed more than 100 women and children at a religious gathering.
The incident happened during a satsang, a Hindu religious festival, in the northern district of Hathras on Tuesday.
The death toll has now risen to 121, making it one of the deadliest such disasters in more than a decade.
Officials said the event was massively overcrowded.
Authorities had given permission for 80,000 people to gather, but around 250,000 people attended the event, according to the first information report (FIR) lodged by the police.
