The case has been registered under sections 304A (causing death due to negligence) and 338 (causing grievous hurt by act that endangers lives of others) of Indian Penal Code, a senior police official said.

"We have registered the case against unknown persons," a senior police official said.

A 35-year-old woman and a young boy were killed and eight persons injured in a stampede triggered by a last minute change in platforms for two trains at the New Delhi Railway Station, facing summer rush.

The stampede occurred at around 2:45 PM after an announcement was made about the change of platforms for Delhi-Muzaffarpur Sapt Kranti Express and Delhi-Bhagalpur Vikramsila Express.
