CJP protest: What's open and closed in Delhi?

Madhya Pradesh police have apprehended 14 students at Itarsi Junction railway station, citing "orders from above." The students were en route to attend the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP)’s protest in New Delhi on October 10. They are believed to be part of the All India Students Federation (AISF). The CJP has called for a demonstration at Jantar Mantar to demand the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over alleged irregularities in the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls.

Sources within the police claim the detentions were carried out under Section 172 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), 2023, and that the students were later released but remained at a hotel. Videos showing police forcibly removing the students from the train have circulated, with the CJP and AISF condemning the "illegal detention" and calling for answers on where the students are being taken and who issued the orders.
