However, during the 2017 campaign for the Assembly elections in Uttar Pradesh, a portion of the stage built for the then CM Akhilesh Yadav and Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi in Allahabad had collapsed. Many leaders were on the stage at the time of the accident but no one was injured. Rahul and Akhilesh were scheduled to take the stage for their addresses after a mega roadshow, which was a part of the election campaign in Allahabad city.

Here it is to be noted that at Modi's rally in Ballia in UP in 2014, three persons had been injured when a stage set up for folk singers collapsed. The incident occurred as a large number of people standing near the stage set up for folk singers rushed to see the then PM candidate, leading to its collapse. A similar incident took place in Mathura in 2014 when people had gathered to see Hema Malini who was campaigning in the constituency. The crowd had become unmanageable and was seen rushing towards the stage as soon as she arrived and started delivering her speech.
