A Delhi court ordered the release of Cockroach Janta Party founder Abhijeet Dipke on Saturday, a day after police placed him in preventive detention ahead of a planned protest in Connaught Place.

Dipke was released from Mandir Marg police station after appearing before a special executive magistrate and signing a peace bond requiring him to maintain peace and good behavior for one year, according to The Indian Express and Scroll. The full conditions of his release were not immediately public. He had signed a similar bond after an earlier preventive arrest on October 11.

Police detained Dipke on Friday before the CJP’s “Lehra Do Tiranga” march, which was organized in response to the arrests of party leaders Ashutosh Ranka and Saurav Das. Authorities had prohibited the Connaught Place demonstration, citing traffic, emergency access and restrictions on public gatherings. Student leader Neha Bora, detained separately while trying to reach central Delhi, was also released Saturday.

The demonstrations are part of continuing protests demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over the Election Commission’s revision of voter rolls. Opposition parties and activists allege the process has been manipulated to benefit Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party. The Election Commission denies favoring any party and says the revisions remove deceased, relocated and duplicate voters and prevent ineligible registrations.

BJP officials have accused opposition groups of promoting disorder, while Congress has defended protest as part of the opposition’s democratic role.
