"Well, if there is a security lapse, it is obviously a very serious matter which should be investigated. A full and comprehensive inquiry has to be done", Party spokesman Abhishek Singhvi said when asked about the incident.

He suggested that the inquiry should be coming out with preventive guidelines and not merely "curative and punitive" measures.
