Goa Police File FIR Over Communal Slogans at CJP Protest in Panaji
A week after seven protesters were detained at a Cockroach Janata Party-led protest in Panaji, Goa police filed an FIR against unknown individuals for promoting enmity and outraging religious feelings, citing communal slogans raised during the event. The protest, held on October 11 to demand the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, was denied official permission. Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant stated the government will not tolerate attempts to disturb communal harmony. The High Court ordered the release of the detained protesters, noting possible unauthorized detention.
