CJP Protests at Delhi Police Station Seeking Action in Jantar Mantar Assault Case
Members of the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) protested at Delhi's Parliament Street Police Station demanding stronger legal action against Swatantra Bhardwaj, who allegedly assaulted Sanjay Kumar, father of student protester Nishu Azad, during a July protest at Jantar Mantar. Bhardwaj claimed self-defense and denied serious injury, while police classified Sanjay's wounds as simple. CJP seeks charges under the SC/ST Act and attempt-to-murder provisions, alleging political interference and insufficient police response. Authorities continue investigating amid ongoing demonstrations and calls for review of the FIR.
