Avinash, So far it remains an allegation and has not been proved. It is learnt that the the issue is actually between the husband and wife which is gradually reaching out to students and staff.... The truth needs to be come out after investigations.... The work of the organisation has been exemplary in the field of performing arts and it has received accolades from one and all....
While the issue between the husband and wife may be personal but If the allegations related to students & staff have any iota of truth, then it is a serious issue.
