RCB fan Shivanand Mallannavar requested Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah to declare a state holiday if RCB wins the IPL.
He proposed naming the day
the “RCB Fans’ Festival,” similar
to Karnataka Rajyotsava.
Mallannavar asked for the
holiday to be observed annually
for fans to celebrate across Karnataka.
He also requested permission
for statewide celebrations with proper arrangements in all districts.
RCB recently won Qualifier 1 against Punjab Super Kings and advanced to the IPL finals.
The fan’s handwritten letter is going viral on social media as
fans hope for RCB’s first IPL title in 18 years.
