Delhi Police Detain CJP Leaders Ahead of 'Lehra Do Tiranga' Protest; Court Allows EventPreviousNext

The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) planned a 'Lehra Do Tiranga' protest at Connaught Place on October 16, 2026, with founder Abhijeet Dipke calling for nationwide participation. Delhi Police detained Dipke and AISA chief Neha Bohra en route to the protest and barred Dipke from holding the event at Connaught Place. The Delhi High Court refused to stop the protest, while authorities increased security and closed Central Park. The Supreme Court agreed to hear a related plea alleging Rahul Gandhi pushed a journalist during an earlier march.
