The Karnataka government admitted in court that stadium gates acted as ‘death traps’ during Royal Challengers Bangalore’s victory celebrations, leading to 11 deaths in a stampede outside Chinnaswamy Stadium. The government acknowledged that around 2.5 lakh people gathered at the stadium, which can only accommodate 35,000. The High Court has issued a notice to the state government and sought a status report. Sources reveal that police had warned against holding the event on a weekday and Royal Challengers Bangalore announced the parade without proper permission. The Karnataka government faces criticism for granting permission despite police warnings about weekday crowds. Questions are being raised about inadequate security arrangements and crowd management. While the government tries to shift blame to organizers, opposition parties are demanding accountability.
