CA Day celebration marked by chaos, confusion

Chaos and confusion reigned supreme at the Chartered Accountants Day celebrations organised by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India here.

Several chartered accountants (CAs) shouted slogans against the government as they were not allowed to enter the Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium, the venue of the event.

Even the media persons, who had come to cover the function to be attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, were stranded as they could not enter the venue.

One of the CAs, who crossed the barricades, was beaten up by the security personnel.

Agitated CAs even threw bottles at the venue.

Even water canons and additional security personnel were requisitioned.

Besides Modi, the other invitees include Finance Minister Arun Jaitley and Revenue Secretary Hasmukh Adhia.
