Delhi Police Releases All Protest Detainees Except CJP Leaders

The Delhi Police have released all detainees from Saturday's anti-Chief Election Commissioner protest, with the exception of leaders of the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), according to police sources. The authorities stated that due legal procedures would be undertaken in the case of the CJP leaders. Notable figures such as CJP leader Abhijeet Dipke, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Arvind Kejriwal were among those detained, as security measures aimed at preventing a large gathering at Jantar Mantar were implemented.

The CJP leaders were apprehended at Indira Gandhi International Airport en route to the protest site. Demonstrators were protesting CEC Gyanesh Kumar's alleged involvement in irregularities during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. CJP leader Ajinkya Shinde has vowed to lead daily marches towards Jantar Mantar until the CEC's resignation is achieved, despite authorities' denial of the permit and warnings against unauthorized gatherings.
