The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) said it has formed a committee, to be headed by Secretary Devajit Saikia, which will be tasked to formulate guidelines in 15 days to prevent incidents like the Bengaluru stampede in future. The committee also has vice-president Rajeev Shukla and treasurer Prabhtej Singh Bhatia as other members.

The decision taken in the 28th BCCI Apex Council meeting held on Saturday comes in the aftermath of the stampede outside the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium during the victory celebrations of Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) on June 4, a day after it won the Indian Premier League 2025 final in Ahmedabad. With nearly two lakh fans trying to enter the stadium, a stampede occurred outside the gates that led to 11 tragic deaths and 33 fans being injured.
