Bengaluru Stampede News Live: A stampede-like situation occurred near Bengaluru’s Chinnaswamy Stadium on Wednesday, where people were celebrating Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s (RCB) in IPL 2025. At least seven people have been killed and dozens of others have been injured in the chaos.
Celebrations had erupted across Bengaluru after the RCB registered a six-run victory against the Punjab Kings (PBKS) to win their maiden IPL title after an agonising 18-year wait. However, the joyful moment was beset by tragedy after a stampede near the cricket stadium, where RCB players were set to be felicitated by Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah.
As per reports, a child was among those who died in the stampede, while several others were in serious condition. Dozens of people injured in the rush have been admitted to the Bowring and Lady Curzon Hospital. Police were seen using mild force as they struggled to control the situation.
Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar acknowledged the deaths, but did not confirm the numbers. BJP MP Tejasvi Surya urged people to to celebrate with responsibility. “Let this moment of joy not be overshadowed by tragedy,” he said.
