Protests organized by the Citizens for Justice and Peace (CJP), referred to as 'Jantar Mantar 2.0,' took place across multiple Indian cities, including Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Ahmedabad. The demonstrations were held to voice concerns regarding perceived irregularities in electoral rolls and were directed against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar.
In the national capital, authorities detained over 7,000 individuals as they attempted to assemble at the Jantar Mantar site. The event, which expanded beyond its original intended venue, reflects a coordinated effort to challenge current electoral processes through multi-city public demonstrations.
