Delhi Police Expands Probe into CJP's Parliament March
The Delhi Police are investigating a protest march organized by the Citizens for Justice and Peace (CJP) that aimed to reach the Parliament.
They believe the protest was very well planned, with detailed instructions and legal teams ready.
The police are looking at social media posts, chats, and CCTV footage to find out who was involved.
They are also checking if the crowd size caused any legal issues, like a stampede that injured a young woman.
The CJP, however, says the police have removed security checkpoints, making it hard to control the crowd.
The police are also looking into whether their own officers used too much force during the protest.
Delhi Police are investigating the 'Sansad Chalo' march with 20 teams analyzing digital communication, CCTV footage, and mobile data.
Chats from WhatsApp groups allegedly contained detailed instructions for protesters, including what to carry and whom to contact if detained.
Two social media handles spreading misinformation about the protests have been blocked.
The crowd size at Jantar Mantar was estimated to be 40,000-50,000, much larger than the usual capacity of 1,500-1,800.
The CJP alleges that the police have removed security checkpoints, leaving volunteers to manage the crowd.
