CJP’s proposed Tiranga march in Connaught Place faced fresh restrictions on the morning of 16 October. The New Delhi Municipal Council had ordered Central Park closed on 16 and 17 October, citing administrative reasons.
Police said the area was not a designated protest venue. The Delhi High Court had declined to stop the proposed gathering while recording the police undertaking to regulate it, according to coverage of the previous day’s hearing.
Abhijeet Dipke said he feared detention ahead of the march. That was his stated concern, not confirmation of a new arrest. This morning brief records preparations and restrictions before a verified outcome of the gathering was available.
