10 Days’ Notice, Earlier Undertakings: Why CJP’s Protest Didn’t Get the Green Light

Delhi Police refused permission for a Cockroach Janta Party protest at Jantar Mantar on October 10, citing short notice, alleged breaches of earlier undertakings and the prevailing law-and-order situation. Authorities invoked Section 163 of the BNSS in New Delhi, warned of legal action, and cited public safety, traffic regulation, and past noncompliance as reasons for rejecting the application.
