  "account": "Delhi anticipates a protest at Jantar Mantar on October 10, 2026, as the Chief Justice of India (CJP) calls for the resignation of the Chief Election Commissioner (CEC). Traffic diversions will be implemented from 6 a.m. Saturday across 30 key points in Delhi, with potential disruptions to metro services, train cancellations, and mobile internet in certain areas. Commuters should expect restrictions around prominent intersections such as Connaught Place, Mandi House, and Jantar Mantar. Authorities have advised avoiding non-essential travel and factoring in extra travel time if heading to railway stations, inter-state bus terminals, or the airport. Traffic restrictions are dynamic and may be adjusted based on real-time assessments.",
  "summary": "The traffic curbs come amid heightened security arrangements ahead of the planned demonstration, with restrictions on metro services, train cancellations and a mobile internet suspension in parts of the national capital",
