By that criteria the migration last year when the abrupt lockdown was called would count as a super spreader event.

However the crucial need is for an event to actually spread the virus. Or more precisely, spread the variant that is currently adapted to india.

It did though? The migration worker did result in a momentary spike in their states when they finally reached their homes, especially after those special trains. Just the variant wasn't as deadly. I am not sure what your point is.
