Youth protest leaders from the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) were detained by police on Tuesday, October 13, after entering the Jantar Mantar protest site in central Delhi. The demonstrators had breached police barricades to stage a protest demanding the resignation of the election chief over concerns regarding revised voter lists.
The detentions occurred one day after authorities officially removed Jantar Mantar from the list of designated protest venues in New Delhi. The site has historically served as a central location for public demonstrations in the capital.
