2 players killed as iron poles collapse on court

While 16-year-old Hardik Rathi, who had taken part in the national sub-junior basketball championship, died in Rohtak Tuesday, Aman, one year younger, breathed his last Monday.

The incidents, which came to light Wednesday, led to outrage with Opposition parties slamming the BJP-led state government and anguished family members joining them in blaming the establishment for dilapidated sports infrastructure. Hardik’s death was captured in vivid detail on CCTV cameras. The footage showed the youngster reaching for the hoop. As soon as he attempts to hang from it, the pole collapses and crushes him under it.
