Delhi Police prepares to file a formal complaint following a student's injuries sustained during a protest march on July 20. Rahul Gandhi, a Congress leader, joined the injured student and staged a sit-in outside a police station, demanding that an individual FIR be registered. The police officer accompanying Gandhi was visibly shaken, stating, "Be it 30 days, 50 days, or even 6 months, I am not going anywhere till an individual FIR is registered."
The Delhi Police initially refused to register an FIR, despite growing pressure from Congress leaders, including Devender Yadav, and Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi. The student, Sahil Lochav, a 19-year-old protester, was allegedly injured by pellet gun fire, with Congress leader Rahul Gandhi displaying pellets allegedly extracted from his body and citing a hospital report indicating over 200 pellets remain lodged in his body, including three in his eye.
Gandhi maintained that the Delhi Police had used pellet guns during the protest and accused the Union Home Minister and the Delhi Police of obstructing justice.
