During protests near Jantar Mantar in Delhi, two Assistant Commissioners of Police (ACPs) and several other police personnel were injured in stone-pelting incidents. ACP Vivek Bhagat sustained head injuries, ear bleeding, and bruises, while ACP Jai Prakash suffered a forehead injury. Police allege that some miscreants, described as outsiders or anti-social elements, infiltrated the protest and attacked security forces. Authorities have registered FIRs and are investigating using CCTV footage and videos. Protest organizers deny involvement in the violence and claim attempts to defame their movement. Security remains heightened in the area.
