The Cockroach Janta Party called for another march to New Delhi’s Jantar Mantar at 10 a.m. on Sunday after police detained protesters and party leaders during demonstrations on Saturday, October 10.
The protests sought the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over alleged irregularities in the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls. CJP national organisation in-charge Ajinkya Shinde said demonstrations would continue until Kumar resigned and urged supporters stopped by police to protest wherever they were.
Central Delhi was heavily secured on Saturday. Mobile internet was suspended for 24 hours within four kilometres of the Janpath-Kartavya Path crossing, while dozens of Metro stations faced gate closures or reduced service. Mail and Express trains scheduled to reach New Delhi and Hazrat Nizamuddin stations during part of the day were cancelled, and two Namo Bharat stations were closed.
Unable to reach Jantar Mantar, protesters assembled in smaller groups elsewhere, including near Dilli Haat and INA, where police detained hundreds, The Hindu reported. The newspaper said officers were seen chasing and dragging protesters into buses, and that one person was bleeding from the head. Scroll journalist Shoaib Daniyal said police detained him more than 20 kilometres from Jantar Mantar and unsuccessfully pressured him to delete videos before releasing him.
The CJP claimed more than 15,000 people faced detention or police action. Delhi Police said its deployment would remain in place Sunday, with transport measures adjusted according to the situation.
