The decision follows KSCA failing to implement corrective measures recommended in the aftermath of the stampede during the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) victory celebrations.
“To avoid any future incidents, we have put in place precautionary measures. We have granted permission accordingly,” Shivakumar, who also holds the Bengaluru Development portfolio, said.
The decision followed a horrific stampede near the stadium during RCB’s victory celebrations on June 4, in which 11 people died and 71 people were injured.
