Significant Detention of Protesters in Delhi Amid CJP Demonstrations
In a significant crackdown in Delhi, authorities detained around 1,500 protesters, including four former Chief Ministers, during demonstrations organized by the Citizens for Justice and Peace (CJP). Key leaders were apprehended immediately upon arrival at the airport, while hundreds faced police action as they attempted to gather for sit-in protests at Jantar Mantar. This response raises concerns about civil liberties and the right to protest in India, highlighting a critical moment for future activism.
