Earlier, the Central Administrative Tribunal also held RCB responsible for this stampede. He believed that the franchise had not taken permission from the police before the event and that is why people had gathered at M Chinnaswamy Stadium. He also said that on the same day there was another state government event in Vidhan Saudha and for this reason a lot of police was deployed there.
