Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav criticised the Modi government over restrictions on protests, saying that any place where people stage a sit-in will become “Jantar Mantar”. He accused the government of hiding behind the police instead of addressing public dissent. His remarks come amid a controversy over the Delhi Police’s decision to remove Jantar Mantar from the list of designated protest venues, with alternative sites identified for demonstrations. The move has drawn criticism from Opposition leaders and protest organisers, who have questioned the restrictions on public protests.
