**Prayagraj, India** – A mix-up between two similarly named trains led to chaos at the Prayagraj Junction on Monday, as passengers mistakenly boarded the wrong train, causing a near-stampede situation, officials reported.
The confusion arose when two trains, the ‘Prayagraj Express’ and the ‘Prayagraj Special’, were scheduled to depart around the same time. Despite announcements made over the public address system, many passengers failed to differentiate between the two services, leading to a chaotic scene on the platform.
Railway officials quickly intervened to manage the situation, ensuring that passengers boarded the correct trains. “We are investigating the incident and will take measures to prevent such confusion in the future,” said a senior railway official.
No injuries were reported, but the incident has raised concerns about the clarity of train announcements and the need for better signage at the station.
The Prayagraj Junction is one of the busiest railway stations in India, handling thousands of passengers daily. The incident has prompted calls for improved communication and passenger management strategies.
