A contempt petition was filed in the Supreme Court on Saturday, alleging that authorities are continuing to shut down metro stations and limit public transport services in Delhi in violation of the court's order issued on Friday. The petition, filed by Advocate Shailendra Mani Tripathi, claims that officials have deliberately violated the court's directions and that the ongoing restrictions have severely crippled public life in Delhi, resulting in hardship for commuters.
The protest, called by the Cockroach Janta Party and opposition parties, was against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. The petition alleges that the authorities have closed metro stations and cancelled train services without valid grounds, despite the court's order to allow public transport to function with appropriate regulation.
