  "account": "Delhi Police conducted overnight raids in 15 districts, apprehending at least 100 individuals with criminal backgrounds. These arrests were linked to a planned protest by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) at Jantar Mantar on October 10, 2026, as tensions escalated over the ongoing Election Commission controversy. The police denied the party's request for permission to hold the demonstration at Jantar Mantar, citing a lack of compliance with previous conditions. Joint Commissioner of Police Nupur Prasad revealed that the permission was requested at the last minute, despite the requirement for a minimum 10-day notice. The CJP maintained that they were informing the authorities rather than seeking permission, arguing that Jantar Mantar is a designated protest site. Traffic disruptions and various restrictions will be implemented on Saturday, including a curfew-like environment around Jantar Mantar.",
