Expressing acknowledgements to the bereaved family members of those that shed their lives in the charge that happened near the Chinnaswamy arena, Deputy Chief DK Shivkumar claimed,”People who were supposed to witness RCB’s IPL victory celebrations, the tragedy and death have brought deep pain and shock.”
“My condolences to the deceased. My condolences to their family. Let there be pride, but not bigger than life. I appeal to everyone to please stay safe,” he included.
In his initial media response, Shivkumar claimed, “I have spoken to the Police Commissioner and everyone. I will also go to the hospital later. I do not want to disturb the doctors who are taking care of the patients.”
Speaking on the casualty he claimed, “The exact number cannot be told now. We appeal to the people to remain calm. We shortened the program. The program ended within 10 minutes. We are trying to make everything normal…Lakhs of people came.”
Reportedly, at the very least eleven individuals have actually passed away and a number of others were harmed in the charge that took place at the arena entrances, where countless followers had actually set up to invite their successful cricket group.
