According to ACP Harish Chander, an FIR was registered against 20 members of the Akhil Bhartiya Hindu Mahasabha. On Monday they were alleged for staging a ‘havan’. To protest atrocities against Hindus in Bangladesh by halting the route before the stadium. Police claimed a “fool-proof” security plan has been devised for the Indian and Bangladesh cricket teams. They are scheduled to arrive here by Tuesday evening.

It is scheduled to begin on September 27 at the International Green Park stadium here. Kanpur’s Additional Commissioner of Police (Law and Order), Harish Chander, informed PTI that they have requested a substantial police force. This includes senior rank officials, to be deployed for the match.
India-Bangladesh tension is more than just sport
There is political unrest in Bangladesh as Prime Minister Shiek Hasina resigned, fled, and came to New Delhi, India. The officer stated that they were working together with central and state agencies. Including the Intelligence Bureau (IB) and state Intelligence, to share information about potential threats and how to deal with them effectively.
Except for this, there are multiple reports, that the Uttar Pradesh Public Works Department (PWD) has deemed one of the stands dangerous. The government officials’ study warns that less than half the capacity of the Balcony C stands will be available for purchase. The UPCA announced that just 1700 tickets will be sold, despite the stand’s capacity of 4800. It is a total mess running out in the heart of UP with the match yet to be played.
