ipke said that if police stop him on his way to Delhi, he would begin the agitation from wherever he is detained.
In a standing order issued on October 11, Delhi Police Commissioner Anurag Kumar de-notified Jantar Mantar Road as a designated protest site.
Dipke said he would begin an agitation from wherever he was detained if police stopped him on his way to Delhi. The CJP’s legal team would approach the court over the detention of Ashutosh Ranka and Sourav Das after they unfurled the national flag at Jantar Mantar, he said. Dipke also shared a video showing CJP members jumping over a gate to enter Jantar Mantar and raising slogans such as “Bharat Mata ki Jai”.
Ramlila Maidan in central Delhi, Burari Ground in north Delhi and CBD Ground in east Delhi were designated as the three new venues for large demonstrations. Police personnel were seen rushing towards them. On Tuesday morning, the CJP said its leaders Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka were detained by police after reaching Jantar Mantar despite heavy barricading and a strong security presence. In a post on X earlier on Tuesday, Dipke said, “Cockroaches with the Tiranga sneaked into Jantar Mantar early this morning before they were picked up by Delhi Police.
Earlier, despite his personal grief, Dipke attended the funeral of an elderly Muslim woman from his village after learning about her death and offered support to her bereaved family.
