Modi, BCCI express grief over RCB stampede; 11 feared dead
New Delhi/Bengaluru, June 4 (UNI) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday expressed deep sorrow over the stampede outside the M Chinnaswamy Stadium here during Royal Challengers Bengaluru's IPL victory celebrations. "The mishap in Bengaluru is absolutely heartrending. In this tragic hour, my thoughts are with all those who have lost their loved ones. I pray that those who are injured have a speedy recovery," the Prime Minister said in a post on X. The stampede occurred when thousands of fans gathered outside the stadium in the city's central business district to catch a glimpse of their favourite players and the IPL trophy. A sudden surge in the crowd led to chaos and suffocation, resulting in multiple casualties. At least 11 people are feared dead and over 50 others injured. Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) Secretary Devajit Saikia said, "Organisers should have planned RCB's IPL-winning celebrations better.' He acknowledged the scale of the celebrations but pointed out a lack of adequate crowd control measures." Senior Congress leader and MLC BK Hariprasad also expressed anguish over the incident. "The incident in which more than 11 people, including women, died in a stampede during the RCB cricket team's victory parade in Bengaluru is extremely shocking and regrettable. The condition of some of the injured is serious, and the government should take immediate action to provide them with appropriate treatment," he said. However, the state government is yet to confirm the number of deaths in the stampede. Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar appealed for calm and said the exact number of casualties was still being ascertained. The BJP seized on the incident to mount a scathing attack on the Congress government. Karnataka BJP President Vijayendra Yediyurappa held the administration directly responsible, alleging that it rushed into organising the rally without proper planning and prioritised publicity over safety. "The state government must take full responsibility," Vijayendra said. "More than 11 people have died, and several others are in critical condition, some in the ICU. This tragedy is a direct result of the government's negligence." Vijayendra said he had spoken to one of the victims, who claimed there was no police presence or ambulance facility at the venue. "The injured had to rush themselves to Bowring Hospital," he said. Calling it a "serious lapse," Vijayendra demanded that Chief Minister Siddaramaiah take moral responsibility and refer the matter for a judicial inquiry. 'Let the CM decide who must be held accountable—but it must go before a judicial forum,' he asserted. The incident has sparked widespread public outrage and drawn scrutiny over the state's preparedness for a high-profile public event, with the discrepancy in casualty figures adding to the anxiety.

"What Happened Is Beyond Tragic": Sachin Tendulkar Reacts As 11 Die At RCB's IPL Celebration Due To Stampede
What started as a celebration, turned fatal on Wednesday as 11 people died in Bengaluru due to stampede at Royal Challengers Bengaluru's IPL 2025 victory celebration. Much like Tuesday night when the team's win in Ahmedabad triggered a street party in the Garden City, Wednesday too had thousands, which eventually became lakhs, converging at the Chinnaswamy stadium, leaving the police outnumbered and struggling to take control of the situation. The men in uniform tried to use mild force to disperse the crowd or to at least bring some order but that did little to discourage people, many of whom could be seen pressed against the stadium's entrance gate, desperate to get in. The scenes leading up to the tragedy reminded one of the historic welcome given to the T20 World Cup-winning Indian squad by Mumbai in July last year. However, while the sea of humanity had a gala time in Mumbai, things went haywire in the Garden City. Sachin Tendulkar has reacted on the incident. "What happened at Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru, is beyond tragic. My heart goes out to every affected family. Wishing peace and strength to all," Sachin posted on X. What happened at Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru, is beyond tragic. My heart goes out to every affected family. Wishing peace and strength to all. 🙏 — Sachin Tendulkar (@sachin_rt) June 4, 2025 Here's what Royal Challengers Bengaluru had to say in its official statement regarding the incident. "We are deeply anguished by the unfortunate incidents that have come to light through media reports regarding public gatherings all over Bengaluru in anticipation of the team's arrival this afternoon. The safety and well-being of everyone is of utmost importance to us," the statement read. "RCB mourns the tragic loss of lives and extend our heartfelt condolences to the affected families. "Immediately upon being made aware of the situation, we promptly amended our program, and followed, the guidance and advice of the local administration. We urge all our supporters to please stay safe." The BCCI said the turn of events was shocking and the organisers should have been better-prepared. "It's most unfortunate, organisers should have planned RCB's IPL-winning celebrations better," BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia told PTI. "When one organises a victory celebration of this magnitude, proper precautions and security measures need to be taken," he added.
