Delhi Police Deny Permission for October 10 CJP Protest Amid Heightened Security Measures
Ahead of the October 10 protest at Delhi's Jantar Mantar organized by the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) demanding Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar's resignation, Delhi Police denied permission citing short notice and law-and-order concerns. Security has been significantly heightened with over 23,000 police and paramilitary personnel deployed, metro station closures, and train cancellations. The CJP alleges mass detentions of supporters nationwide, while authorities emphasize maintaining public safety. Opposition leaders and activists criticize the government's response, whereas counter-protests support Prime Minister Modi and law enforcement.
