Cockroach Janta Party Defies Ban, Thousands Clash with Police in Delhi Rain
Police brutality against peaceful protesters is a serious concern.
Thousands of supporters of the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) defied a police ban to march on India's parliament in Delhi, demanding the resignation of the education minister over alleged exam paper leaks. Police blocked the march with barricades, leading to scuffles and injuries from baton-charges. The protest, which began at Jantar Mantar observatory, continued despite heavy rain and police attempts to disperse protesters. CJP representatives met Health Minister JP Nadda but tensions remained high as thousands stayed at Jantar Mantar hoping for permission to continue the march.
