Puri Rath Yatra stampede was termed “very unfortunate” by the Law Minister, who assured that strict action will follow after a senior officer investigates the tragedy. The government awaits the inquiry report before proceeding further.
The Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) sought government approval for RCB’s IPL victory celebration at Vidhana Soudha. Following a deadly stampede, KSCA denied responsibility and filed a petition to quash an FIR against its officials, claiming limited involvement in event management. A court has temporarily protected them from police action.
