The iconic M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, often celebrated as the center of Karnataka Cricket, will reopen its gates for competitive cricket after one of the tragic incidents on 4 June. For the first time since the rush tragedy that claims 11 lives during life during Royal Challengers Bengaluru‘S (RCB) IPL Victory Celebrations, the location will organize competitions of the prestigious K Thimmappiah Memorial Trophy of the Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA). However, no fans are allowed in the stadium.
The Maiden IPL title of RCB attracted a huge crowd fans who rose to the stadium to participate in the parties. The enormous size of the crowd and mismanagement at the gates led to a fatal rush with eleven lives lost, and more than 50 were injured. A study submitted by the government was later considered the ChinnasWamy stadium as unsafe for large-scale events, which quoted structural and crowd control shortcomings.
In the aftermath, the KSCA was confronted with a recoil, while RCB initially silent before he finally promised financial support. The incident forced the authorities to re -assess the suitability of the stadium for organizing important events, which leads to limitations and even the loss of hosting rights for different world cup competitions for women and the Maharaja trophy.
RCB has recently announced a revised compensation package for the families of the victims
Despite the constant control, Cricket will return to the location in the form of the K Thimmappiah Memorial Trophy, a Red-Ball Pre-season match with 16 teams, with people like Mumbai, Madhya Pradesh, Vidarbha and Himachhal. Remarkable Indian players such as Ajinkya Rahane, Venkatesh Iyer, Hanuma Vihari and Vijay Shankar will appear in the tournament. The stadium organizes six competitions, including a semi -final and the final planned for 26 September.
In line with safety recommendations, all competitions are performed behind closed doors. The KSCA continues to suffer from compliance problems, including fire safety instructions, and is currently dependent on generators and solar energy as a result of a rapids by Selscom.
In the meantime, RCB has recently announced a revised compensation package for the families of the victims. Under their new initiative, RCB Cares, the Franchise Inr 25 Lakh has promised to every affected family, in addition to a long -term dedication to improve the safety of the public and to support fans.
