In the aftermath of a tragic stampede during Royal Challengers Bengaluru's (RCB) IPL victory celebrations, Karnataka's opposition leader R. Ashoka and BJP representatives are visiting the family of 11-year-old Bhoomik, one of the incident's victims. Bhoomik's father, Lakshman, criticized the government's lack of preventive measures that could have averted the disaster.
Speaking to ANI, Lakshman expressed gratitude towards BJP MLA Hullali K Suresh for his support, while lamenting the absence of government-issued compensation. 'No parent should endure this pain,' Lakshman stated, pointing out a systemic failure leading to the stampede which claimed 11 lives.
The incident prompted legal actions, with Bengaluru police filing an FIR against RCB, event organizers, and KSCA. The Karnataka High Court is currently hearing a petition challenging the arrest related to the stampede. Legal deliberations continue, with interim relief granted to KSCA officials, as the court adjourned further hearings to June 9.
