You switched from the user 'soham' to the user 'acl'. Does the user
'acl' have access to your home directory? Try "getfacl /", "getfacl
/home", and "getfacl /home/soham" to find out the first place where the
'acl' user doesn't have execute (i.e. traversal) permissions.

Once it can access your home directory, it should be able to access the
'a' file.
