Delhi police detained more than 100 people during the CJP protest on 16 October, including founder Abhijeet Dipke and student leader Neha Bora, according to the Indian Express. Protesters gathered around Connaught Place demanding Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar’s resignation.
Police said the detentions followed violations of prohibitory orders and that the proposed venue lacked permission. Opposition leaders criticised the action and demanded the release of Dipke and Bora; their organisations also raised concerns about communication with them.
The report, updated early on 17 October, records the march’s outcome after the previously reported park closure. It does not establish the protesters’ electoral allegations, a criminal conviction or the election chief’s resignation.
