Ashutosh Ranka, a spokesperson for CJP, said that a planned march to Parliament on July 20 [1] will proceed as scheduled.
The announcement follows a confrontation between protesters and Delhi police at Jantar Mantar on Saturday morning. The situation highlights escalating tensions between civil rights activists and law enforcement in the capital.
Ranka questioned the actions taken by the Delhi police during the events at Jantar Mantar. He addressed the police handling of the protest and used the platform to outline the next steps for the movement. The spokesperson expressed concerns regarding the nature of the police response to the gathering.
Despite the friction at Jantar Mantar, Ranka said the strategy for the upcoming demonstration remains the same. The group intends to maintain its schedule for the July 20 [1] march to Parliament to continue raising their concerns.
The movement's focus remains on the visibility of their cause within the heart of the city. Ranka said the police actions would not deter the planned mobilization of supporters.
“the 20 July Parliament march will proceed unchanged”
The determination to proceed with the July 20 march despite police intervention at Jantar Mantar suggests a strategy of persistence by CJP. This escalation indicates a potential for further confrontations between activists and Delhi police as the date of the Parliament march approaches, signaling a period of heightened civic unrest in the capital.
