Delhi Police Report Work-Related Stress Amid Prolonged Protest Deployments
Delhi Police personnel have reported work-related stress due to prolonged deployments during recent protests, including those in July against the NEET paper leak and October agitations by political groups alleging vote theft. Officers cited extended duty hours and canceled leaves, prompting plans by the Centre to form a committee with police and home ministry officials to address mental health concerns. Counseling support from institutions like the Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration is being considered. The suspension of ACP Manasvi Vashistha after protesting highlights internal discontent within the force.
