Delhi Police Denies Detaining Abhijit Dipke
The Delhi Police said that Abhijit Dipke, the founder of the Cockroach Janta Party, was not taken away by the police.
Some people on the internet were saying he was, but the police said that is not true.
He was still at the protest place.
The police also told everyone to be careful and not believe everything they read online, especially during the big student protests happening in Delhi.
They said they are there to keep everyone safe and follow the rules.
The protests were about the NEET-UG paper leak case and other exam problems, and people were asking for the Education Minister to step down.
There were some tense moments between the police and the protesters, but the police said they were just doing their job to keep things calm.
Delhi Police denied reports that Abhijit Dipke was detained during the 'Sansad Chalo' protest.
CJP spokesperson Saurav Das initially claimed Dipke was 'picked up' by the police but later retracted the statement.
The police clarified that Dipke was available on stage and not detained.
Protests were held demanding the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan over the NEET-UG paper leak case.
Clashes broke out between police and demonstrators at Jantar Mantar, with security personnel attempting to maintain order.
