40,000 paramilitary personnel proof that Delhi protest was successful: Prashant Kishor

Delhi traffic authorities imposed stringent restrictions on traffic for the second straight day on Sunday, October 11, 2026, as the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) continued to demand the removal of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. The Delhi Traffic Police issued an advisory detailing diversions from 6 a.m., affecting key intersections in Lutyens' Delhi, including Jantar Mantar, Connaught Place, Mandi House, Patel Chowk, and others.

Security measures intensified following the CJP's announcement of continued protests until their demands were met, alongside student organizations like the Students Federation of India (SFI). Police reported preventive arrests of CJP leaders Ajinkya Shinde, Abhijeet Dipke, Ranka, and Das, who will face the Executive Magistrate at Delhi Cantt.

The SFI asserted that student demonstrations would remain peaceful, with new protest sites emerging where police blockades prevented their access. Commuters were advised to avoid non-essential travel, accounting for additional journey time to crucial transportation hubs, with authorities monitoring and adjusting restrictions based on real-time conditions.
