'Once again, an abduction': Aides claim Neha Bora taken to unknown location by cops

All India Students Association (AISA) chief Neha Bora claimed that she was taken to an undisclosed location after being detained by Delhi Police while heading to a protest in New Delhi. Bora's aides posted on her X account that she did not have her phone with her during the incident, which they described as "once again, an abduction."

The police detained Bora near Mandi House, following the arrest of CJP leader Abhijeet Dipke at his residence in Jhandewalan, both of whom were on their way to participate in the planned protest. The detentions led to tension among protesters, camera crews, and security personnel amid heightened security measures across the city.

Police sources told PTI that Dipke was taken to Jafarpur Kalan police station after his arrest. Delhi Police confirmed the detentions, stating that the situation remained peaceful and that their main objective is to maintain law and order and ensure smooth traffic flow. Police Commissioner Anurag Kumar visited the DCP New Delhi office to review security arrangements.

Police cordoned off Central Park in Connaught Place, with tear gas and Vajra vehicles positioned to manage the situation. Hundreds of protesters, including members of CJP and student organizations, gathered at Connaught Place and Mandi House for flash protests, waving the national flag amid heavy police presence.
