Yadav said a manager with DLF Place, Saket told them that the children would require "special permission" to enter its premises.

The mall authorities rejected the charge.

When contacted, an executive of the mall said there was some "miscommunication" when the children reached the mall around 4 pm, which was "resolved and they were even taken around the mall and provided refreshments".
