Resignation of KSCA Officials Following Tragic Incident After RCB's IPL Victory

In the aftermath of a tragic stampede that occurred during the celebration of Royal Challengers Bangalore's IPL victory, two senior officials from the Karnataka State Cricket Association have resigned. Secretary A. Shankar and Treasurer E.S. Jayaram took moral responsibility for the incident, which resulted in the loss of 11 lives. The officials had previously sought permission to celebrate at Vidhana Soudha, but chaos ensued outside M. Chinnaswamy Stadium when a large crowd gathered in response to a now-deleted social media invitation. This unfortunate event led to the cancellation of the victory parade, while the festivities inside the stadium continued.
