"Taking full care of patients," Bengaluru's Bowring and Lady Curzon hospital administers to 11 injured in stadium stampede

Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], June 5 (ANI): In the wake of the stampede at M Chinnaswamy Stadium that claimed 11 lives and injured 33 others, Medical authorities at Bowring and Lady Curzon Hospital reported receiving six bodies and 18 injured on the day of the incident.
Speaking to the media, Medical superintendent Dr T. Kemparaju said, "After the stampede, we received 18 injured persons and six bodies. Out of the 18 injured persons, eight received treatment and went home, and the remaining 10 patients were admitted to the hospital for observation. Among the 10 persons admitted to the hospital, three sustained fractures in the legs. We have received instructions to take full care of the patients."
Meanwhile, Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has ordered a magisterial inquiry into the incident. The tragedy unfolded when thousands of fans overwhelmed the stadium area during Royal Challengers Bangalore's IPL victory celebration.
Karnataka Home Minister Dr G Parameshwara confirmed that the state government had no role in organising the event.
"We did not request RCB or the KCA, they organised it (the victory celebration). They are the ones who brought the team to Bengaluru. The government also felt it should facilitate this, as it was the Bengaluru team. I feel very sorry that this incident happened," Parameshwara said after inspecting the site.
CM Siddaramaiah, addressing the media, said, "11 died and 33 were injured in the stampede. This tragedy should not have happened. The government expresses deep sorrow over this incident." He announced a compensation of Rs 10 lakh for the families of the deceased and assured that all the injured will receive free medical treatment.
"I have ordered a magisterial inquiry and given 15 days. People even broke the gates of the stadium. There was a stampede. No one expected such a huge crowd. The stadium has a capacity of only 35,000 people, but 2-3 lakh people came," the Chief Minister said, underlining the scale of the crowd and security strain.
The Home Minister will convene a meeting with Bengaluru Police Commissioner, senior police officials, DCPs, and Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) representatives at the stadium on Thursday to review crowd management lapses. (ANI)
