Security was tightened across New Delhi on October 11, 2026, ahead of a fresh protest call at Jantar Mantar by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP). Police and paramilitary personnel were deployed across key locations, with barricades and traffic restrictions in place following Saturday’s demonstrations and detentions. The protest is linked to demands for Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar’s resignation over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. Authorities are maintaining heightened security amid the planned mobilisation. #Delhi #DelhiPolice #Security #JantarMantar #CJPProtest #GyaneshKumar #SIR #NewDelhi #protest The Hindu’s Special documentary Gandhi for Gen Z: The Mahatma is suddenly cool again https://youtu.be/H1826_OhPzA?si=hTHLFktE3gZgqAIM Thank you for watching our video!
