‘Aroop Biswas Wasn’t Part Of Show Flow, Arrest Him’: Satadru Dutta Targets Minister Over Messi’s India Tour Row
West Bengal Sports Minister Aroop: Organiser Satadru Dutta has launched a scathing attack on the then West Bengal Sports Minister Aroop Biswas and the handling of security during Lionel Messi’s controversial Kolkata appearance, alleging protocol violations, political interference, and a one-sided investigation into the chaos that followed the event.
Nearly six months after the incident, Dutta claimed the event had a tightly-controlled “show flow” approved by police and security authorities, but alleged that unauthorised intervention by political figures disrupted the programme and ultimately led to crowd unrest.
“The most byword reason is obviously, an immature sports minister doesn't know what his responsibility is, he played with the emotions of the state, emotions of the fan, and obviously, I became the victim of it,” Dutta alleged while speaking to IANS. “He forgot that any action can jeopardise the event, he did it, the first thing he did was, he used his political clout to make sure that he can, you know, he can have his own will, you know, own way of doing this event,” he added.
