Our Take: Accountability Must Follow Security Lapses
This is a serious development. When a global icon's management team formally files a complaint with police, it underscores how badly the event was handled. In our view, the security of high-profile international visitors is not just a matter of protocol — it reflects on the state's ability to manage large-scale events. If the allegations against Aroop Biswas are proven, it would be a clear case of negligence. The police must investigate thoroughly and ensure that those responsible for the security breach are held accountable. Fans and the public deserve to know what went wrong and why.
