At about 5pm, invitees told to go home as the auditorium was full up

Looks more Invitation cards given than the actual sitting capacity?

It was more like a family occasion, with many noisy children and even infants

They must have also occupied the chairs.

More of Party workers or kariakartas and their friends and family.

Those who were in already, entry denied, locked door from inside

Spare Blank Invitation Cards / Pass were available at the venue with the people

I asked one, I got two.
