Abhijeet Dipke, founder of the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), expressed concern over the closure of 12 Delhi Metro stations ahead of a protest at Jantar Mantar. Dipke, who was in Mumbai for the protest demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, questioned why the Metro was shut down if the Shivaji Park demonstration was seen as an inconvenience.
The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) shut down entry and exit points at the stations to enhance security prior to the event. Meanwhile, over 500 individuals were arrested at Jantar Mantar after they attempted to gather despite being denied permission to protest. The Mumbai-based CJP activists joined other civil society groups in staging a protest at Shivaji Park against the Election Commission and alleged irregularities in the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process.
