Amit Shah reaches Delhi Police headquarters to take stock of law & order in capital

Union Home Minister Amit Shah visited the Delhi Police headquarters on Saturday, October 24, 2026, to review the current law and order situation in the nation's capital. The trip came as the Delhi Police faced increased scrutiny over allegations of using excessive force during the CJP's Sansad Chalo protest march in July.

During his afternoon visit, Shah met with senior police officials to discuss the force's performance, ongoing investigations and key law enforcement challenges. The meeting was expected to address the circumstances surrounding the July protests, the police response and steps taken to prevent similar incidents in the future.

The Home Minister's presence was also intended to bolster the morale of the Delhi Police, which has been under intense scrutiny for its handling of protests recently. Shah's visit marked his return to the Delhi Police headquarters after over four years, with his last visit occurring on August 30, 2022.
