CJP Makes Fresh Allegations

In a post on X,  a CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke shared a video that he claimed showed a truck loaded with stones parked near the protest site. He alleged that the vehicle could be part of an attempt to portray peaceful demonstrators as violent.

Dipke also claimed that a damaged vehicle had been positioned near Jantar Mantar and alleged it could later be used to blame protesters for vandalism. These allegations have not been independently verified, and Delhi Police had not issued an official response when this report was filed.

Section 163 in Force Across New Delhi

Delhi Police said no permission had been sought or granted for the proposed march towards Parliament.

Authorities have enforced Section 163 of the BNSS across the New Delhi district, restricting unlawful assemblies, rallies and processions. According to the police, demonstrations are permitted only at the designated protest site at Jantar Mantar and require prior approval.

Police also warned that violations could invite action under Section 223 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and other applicable laws.

Protest to Continue
