Indian authorities in New Delhi have detained Abhijeet Dipke, the founder of the 'Cockroach' movement, alongside other leaders of the group. The arrests occurred ahead of a planned protest in the capital, which had prompted a security lockdown in the area.
The movement, described as a youth-led organization, had scheduled the demonstration to demand the resignation of India's election chief. The detention of the group's leadership has effectively preempted the planned protest action.
