Karnataka Govt Appeals High Court Over CAT Order in Stampede Case
The government in Karnataka is in a legal fight about a police officer after a stadium incident.
A special court had previously said the officer could return to work.
The government is now asking a higher court to look at the case again because of the lower court's decision.
The government is challenging the ruling that allowed the officer to return to duty.
They are also discussing how to manage big crowds at events in the future.
Karnataka government challenged the Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) order.
The CAT had previously revoked the suspension of IPS officer Vikash Kumar.
