‘Govt used to intimidate, but now it’s afraid’: INDIA bloc’s march to the Supreme Court

Amid serious questions surrounding Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar and the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise, opposition parties took to the streets on October 12 to register their protest. Tight security arrangements were put in place across central Delhi, with police barricades visible at several locations.

During the demonstration, political leaders and activists raised concerns regarding alleged irregularities in the electoral process. A heavy deployment of security forces was observed to contain the protesters; however, the forces appeared more restrained this time compared to the day before, when hundreds, including journalists, had been detained.

Who participated in the protest? What security measures did the police take? What did the protesters say, and how did the day unfold on Delhi’s streets?
