  "summary": "Central Delhi was sealed on October 10 ahead of a protest demanding the resignation of India's Chief Election Commissioner, Gyanesh Kumar. According to Channel News Asia, 57 metro stations were shut, several long-distance trains were cancelled, mobile internet was suspended, and markets were closed. The protest, called by the Cockroach Janta Party, aimed to draw thousands of demonstrators who want Kumar to quit over a revision of voter lists that critics say favours Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party.\n\nThe Delhi Metro and Namo Bharat Metro stations at Sarai Kale Khan and New Ashok Nagar remained closed till 10 PM on October 10, as reported by NDTV and confirmed by another NDTV report. The Delhi Police had denied permission for the protest at Jantar Mantar, citing a previous breakdown of law and order in the area, and deployed over 20,000 police and paramilitary personnel, according to Live Mint.\n\nThe protest was organised to demand Kumar's resignation over alleged irregularities in the electoral rolls and the Special Intensive Revision. The opposition has alleged that the government is trying to fix voter lists to its advantage. Live Mint reported that the Cockroach Janta Party, led by Abhijeet Dipke, along with student bodies like AISA, SFI, and others, planned the protest.",
