  "account": "Three leaders of the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) were detained upon their arrival in Delhi on October 10, 2026, to join a protest demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. Abhijeet Dipke, Saurav Das, and Ashutosh Ranka were among those apprehended. Earlier, CJP legal affairs head Ratna Singh also faced detention outside her residence in Jangpura, New Delhi. Delhi Police surrounded her car and attempted to enter her home without a warrant. Singh stated she was surrounded by Delhi Police and CRPF personnel, who claimed they had \"verbal orders from above\" requiring her detention. She and the detained CJP leaders challenged their illegal detainment through legal action. The protest aimed to intensify demands for Gyanesh Kumar's resignation and the rollback of the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls.",
  "summary": "This pre-planned interception by the Delhi Police aims to cripple the leadership of today’s peaceful demonstrations before they even reach the protest site, reads the CJP statement",
