IPL 2025 saw history being created as the Royal Challengers Bengaluru won their maiden IPL title in 18 years. The craze of the fans was understandably unprecedented and uncontrollable. The result of this unparalleled fan craze turned out to be dark and saddening for cricket fans.

Karnataka Government Denied The Hosting Of The Event

The franchise arranged a celebration of their maiden title at their home ground, M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. As per the reports, an open bus victory parade was arranged by the franchise, which was later cancelled as the government let them know that they would be unable to provide the proper security. 

The open bus victory parade got cancelled and instead, a pass-based entry was arranged by the franchise at M Chinnaswamy Stadium. As it turned out the situation got out of hand due to the overexcitement of the fans and the authorities failed to handle the crowd that poured into the stadium. 

As a result of this unmanageable large presence of people, the situation got out of hand and resulted in the reported death of 11 RCB fans.

Senior Journalist Blames The Authority For The Incident

The social media was seen buzzing with the incident. Many cricketers also condemned whatever turned out. The latest addition to the group of well-known people was senior journalist, Vikrant Gupta.

Vikrant Gupta did not hold back in calling out the responsibility of the authorities and the franchise for the sad incident.

 Virat Kohli Condemned The Incident

The star of the RCB franchise, Virat Kohli condemned the incident through a story on Instagram. The day which could have been one of the brightest in the history of the franchise, probably turned out to be the darkest day.
