20,000 Cops, 300 Cameras, 12 Detention Centres: Delhi's Plan to Contain CJP Protest

  • Starting 10 pm on Friday, the Delhi Police ordered a 24-hour mobile internet suspension within a four-kilometre radius of the Janpath-Kartavya Path crossing ahead of a Cockroach Janata Party protest.
  • The CJP and student organizations called for the October 10 mobilization to demand the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, alleging irregularities in the electoral roll revision process.
  • Extensive security measures include closing entry and exit gates at 57 Delhi Metro stations and cancelling more than 60 trains arriving at New Delhi and Hazrat Nizamuddin stations, while police divided the district into 20 zones.
  • Chief Justice Surya Kant noted that authorities cannot halt all public transport, leading Solicitor General Tushar Mehta to agree to reassess the prohibition of Metro and train movements.
  • Internet services were also suspended during the CJP's previous protest at Jantar Mantar regarding the NEET paper leak in July; the Union Home Ministry authorized this latest order, which covers an area more than double previous restrictions.
