Videos showed many devotees rushing to give CPR to those who fainted after a stampede broke out at Venkateswara Temple in Andhra Pradesh's Srikakulam district on Saturday. Visuals also showed devotees jostling with each other and trying to jump over the rails to escape the stampede as some gasped for air. PM Modi announced an ex-gratia of ₹2 lakh.
