“People will not forget this —or Virat Kohli. While people were dying outside, there was a celebration inside. It’s truly shocking and disheartening. The families of the dead should consider suing RCB and the state government for ₹100 crore for this tragic mishap…BCCI is also shirking responsibility,” former Indian cricketer Madan Lal said.
