Delhi Police Investigate Alleged Protest Chats Amid 'Sansad Chalo' Violence
Delhi Police are investigating alleged WhatsApp chats linked to the July 20 'Sansad Chalo' protest organized by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), which turned violent. The messages reportedly discuss preparations for communication during potential internet shutdowns and suggest a willingness among some protesters to embrace sacrifice, including references to possible casualties. Authorities are verifying the authenticity of these chats alongside other evidence such as CCTV and drone footage. The investigation aims to clarify the extent of planning behind the protest and any intent beyond peaceful demonstration.
