The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) on Saturday accused the Delhi Police of creating an "atmosphere of fear and siege" around Jantar Mantar, alleging that officers were unlawfully detaining citizens, preventing supporters from reaching the protest site and blocking the movement of food, drinking water, medicines and other essential supplies.
In an 'important statement', the party demanded that the Delhi Police "immediately cease and desist" from detaining or intimidating people attempting to join the protest and allow unhindered access to volunteers, lawyers, journalists, family members and medical personnel.
