  "summary": "India has rejected concerns raised by the United Nations Human Rights office over reported detentions during demonstrations in New Delhi. The protests, organised by the Cockroach Janta Party, saw around 1,200 people detained overnight and approximately 500 more detained in the morning, according to police sources.\n\nThe UN Human Rights Office expressed concern over the mass detentions of civil society members, lawyers, and journalists, and called for their immediate and unconditional release. However, India's permanent mission to the UN in Geneva described these concerns as \"misplaced\" and an \"unwarranted interference\" in the country's internal affairs.\n\nIndia's response stated that the right to peaceful assembly is guaranteed by the Constitution and protected by the country's democratic institutions, independent judiciary, and free media. The Indian mission also urged the UN Human Rights office to devote comparable attention to large-scale protests in other parts of the world, citing the need for impartiality and non-selectivity in its work, as per NDTV.",
