BJP stages massive protest over RCB stampede

Bengaluru, Jun 17 (UNI) Mounting pressure on the Karnataka government over the stampede at the RCB fan event in Chinnaswamy Stadium that claimed 11 lives, the BJP on Tuesday staged a massive protest in Bengaluru demanding the resignation of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar.
Led by senior BJP leaders, including Vijayendra Yediyurappa and Dr CN Ashwath Narayan, hundreds of party workers and supporters gathered in the heart of the city, raising slogans and holding placards seeking justice for the victims.
Addressing the gathering, Vijayendra lambasted the Congress-led government for what he called complete administrative failure and irresponsible governance. He alleged that the stampede, which occurred during a fan event organised by the IPL franchise Royal Challengers Bengaluru, was the result of the "political leadership’s negligence and internal power tussle".
