The system gradually turned into violence
Let us tell you that a great football match was going to be held in the stadium on Saturday, but the situation turned into violence and chaos on a large scale. The fans were very angry when they did not get to see a glimpse of Messi. People came from long distances to see Messi and even bought very expensive tickets and even then they could not see the star footballer. Angered by this, the fans destroyed the entire arrangement there. Meanwhile, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has formed a committee tasked with fixing responsibility for these shortcomings and suggesting corrective steps to prevent such incidents from happening again at high profile events. An FIR has now been registered for this and the police have arrested the main organizer on charges of mismanagement and public disorder.
