Delhi Police De-notifies Jantar Mantar as Protest Site Amid FIR Against Aaditya Thackeray
Delhi's Jantar Mantar has been de-notified as a designated protest site by Delhi Police following a Ministry of Home Affairs committee's review to identify alternative venues for demonstrations. The decision has drawn criticism from activists questioning public consultation. Separately, an FIR was filed against Shiv Sena MLA Aaditya Thackeray and MNS leader Amit Thackeray after they protested the detention of activists demanding the Chief Election Commissioner's resignation over electoral roll concerns. The Supreme Court clarified it has not ruled on the new voter registration Form 6.
