Gulte Movie News And Politics
After having won the IPL trophy finally after a wait that lasted 18 years, Royal Challengers Bengaluru appear to be in an absolute mess when it comes to their homeground for the 2026 IPL season.
On one hand, the Karnataka government reluctantly approved the proposal to hold the IPL games at Chinnaswamy stadium after the horrifying stampede in 2025. On the other hand, they have been speculations that RCB is vexed with these politics and is looking to move to NAVI Mumbai for their home games.
While there is a lot of confusion happening about the home stadium for RCB in the 2026 IPL season, the team management has made a communication today.
In a formal communication to the Karnataka Cricket Association, RCB has proposed the installation of 300 to 350 AI-enabled cameras at the Chinnaswamy Stadium.
This advanced surveillance technology will empower the KSCA and law enforcement agencies to efficiently manage crowd movement, ensure disciplined queueing, monitor unauthorised access through real-time tracking of entries and exits, and significantly enhance overall fan safety.
RCB has further committed to bearing the entire one time cost of this initiative, estimated at approximately ₹4.5 crore.
This could be a suggestion that RCB is taking certain measures to enhance the facilities at Chinnaswamy Stadium and make it suitable for hosting the IPL games. Could this be considered as an indication that RCB will indeed be playing at the Chinnaswamy Stadium in 2026? Only time will tell.
