CJP Tiranga march: What we know about Abhijeet Dipke's second Delhi Police detention in a week

CJP activist Abhijeet Dipke, who was arrested ahead of the Tiranga march, will face a Special Executive Magistrate court on Saturday. The Delhi Police detained Dipke on Friday while he was en route to the CJP's 'Lehra Do Tiranga' yatra in Connaught Place. The police cited Section 163 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), a preventive provision, to restrict public gatherings, processions, and demonstrations without prior permission.

Dipke was also subject to a previous undertaking to maintain peace for a year. The police issued two notices, one from New Delhi district and another from South-West Delhi district, directing him not to visit Central Park. The CJP's legal head confirmed that Dipke's whereabouts were unknown and that his lawyers had not yet met him.
