Following a deadly stampede that claimed 11 lives and left over 40 injured outside Bengaluru’s M. Chinnaswamy Stadium during Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s IPL 2025 victory celebrations, police issued urgent warnings to the public. Using loudspeakers and public address systems, authorities appealed to fans—particularly women and children—not to approach the stadium, citing dangerous overcrowding.
