Bengaluru Police Permit Tiranga March with Restrictions Amid Protest Controversy
Bengaluru Police permitted a Tiranga march organized by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) and allied groups from Town Hall to the Quit India Memorial, subject to strict conditions including bans on slogans, placards, and protests at certain locations. The march followed earlier detentions of CJP members in Delhi during protests at Jantar Mantar. Organizers and civil rights groups criticized police restrictions and the BJP-led Union government for limiting dissent, while police cited a Karnataka High Court order restricting protests to Freedom Park.
