Bengaluru's Chinnaswamy Stadium declared 'unsafe' for big events; Women’s WC 2025, IPL 2026 & other matches in doubt

The commission's report stated that the venue's "design and structure" are inherently "unsuitable and unsafe" for large-scale gatherings. It also warned that the organisation of big-attendance events at the stadium will pose "unacceptable risks to public safety, urban mobility, and emergency preparedness."
