Jantar Mantar Protest Live: Dipke, Das & Ranka Detained on Flight at Delhi Airport | Dr. Manish Kr

Activists Abhijeet Dipke, Saurav Das, and Ashutosh Ranka were detained by the Delhi Police at the Indira Gandhi International Airport. The detentions occurred ahead of a planned protest at Jantar Mantar, where demonstrators intended to demand the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. Ahead of the planned agitation, Delhi Police denied permission for the gathering, citing severe law-and-order concerns. Authorities imposed heavy restrictions across the national capital to maintain public order. Security personnel detained over 600 individuals overall to prevent unauthorized demonstrations. Prior to his detention, Abhijeet Dipke publicly stated that he was fully prepared to face arrest for the cause. The heavy security deployment and widespread detentions caused significant disruptions and brought intense police scrutiny to the planned protest site.
