RCB announces ₹25 lakh compensation to families of stampede victims
Royal Challengers Bengaluru has announced a compensation of ₹25 lakh to the families of the 11 victims who tragically lost their lives in a harrowing stampede outside the Chinnaswamy Stadium during the Indian Premier League (IPL) victory celebrations earlier this year in June. RCB took to social media to announce the financial assistance to the families of the victims.
“Our hearts broke on June 4, 2025. We lost eleven members of the RCB family. They were part of us. Part of what makes our city, our community & our team unique. Their absence will echo in the memories of each one of us,” RCB wrote in an official statement.
“No amount of support can ever fill the space they've left behind. But as a first step, and with the deepest respect, RCB has extended INR 25 lakh each to their families. Not just as financial aid, but as a promise of compassion, unity, and ongoing care,” the statement added.
RCB won their maiden IPL title, bringing an end to the 18-year-long wait. They thrashed Punjab Kings in the final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad to emerge victorious under the captaincy of Rajat Patidar.
