In view of chaos during an event featuring Lionel Messi in Kolkata, the Delhi Police has made multi-layered security arrangements at and around the Arun Jaitley Stadium where the Argentine football icon will attend another event on Monday.

The event will be held at the stadium here between 1 pm and 4 pm, officials said on Sunday.
