BENGALURU: Karnataka Home Minister G. Parameshwara said on Friday that the state government would implement the recommendations of the report submitted by retired Justice John Michael D'Cunha on the June 4 stampede tragedy, which claimed 11 lives. The implementation will be done in a phased manner, he added.

Speaking to reporters in Bengaluru, Parameshwara said, “The government has primarily accepted the report by Justice John Michael D'Cunha on the stampede tragedy. We will try to implement the recommendations one after the other. The ongoing cases against RCB and DNA will continue. The officers involved have already been suspended and subjected to one form of punishment. Now, the government has decided to conduct a departmental inquiry.”
