The action against a RCB member and three others in connection with the stampede outside Chinnaswamy Stadium was taken on the basis of an FIR that was registered, Bengaluru Police Commissioner Seemanth Kumar Singh said.

In a surprise move, the RBI slashed the repo rate by 50 basis points to 5.5%, exceeding expectations. This decision, driven by a lower projected inflation rate of 3.7% and a need to boost domestic growth, aims to reduce home loan EMIs and stimulate consumer spending.

The Chinnaswamy Stadium bore witness to a tragic scene following a chaotic event, with cleaning staff discovering around 150 bags of discarded footwear, some stained with blood. Workers recounted the harrowing experience, describing the scene as a ‘war zone,’ particularly disturbed by children’s footwear.
