  "account": "Day three of the anti-EC stir saw hundreds of protesters detained, including All India Students Association (AISA) president Neha Bora and Yogendra Yadav. The protest, demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, entered its third consecutive day. The rally began from Andhra Bhavan Canteen and aimed to reach Jantar Mantar, where demonstrators demanded accountability and a probe into allegations of sexual harassment against three women journalists covering the protests. Bora was among those detained in a police vehicle, which remained stationary for 20 minutes as protesters blocked its movement. The stretch between Ashoka Road and Parliament Street was closed, and police further restricted movement on several roads. Over 250 people, including AISA, AAP, and IYC workers, as well as Yogendra Yadav, were taken into custody. Despite the tight security, protesters continued to demonstrate, with police repeatedly detaining them and urging them to \"take a leave\" until Gyanesh Kumar took a leave.",
