Delhi Police Families Demand Justice After Protest Injuries
A big student protest happened in Delhi at a place called Jantar Mantar.
Some police officers were hurt when the protest got out of hand.
The families of those police officers said the police were ignored and that their loved ones were not treated well.
One family member said her dad was almost lynched and had to stay in the hospital for hours.
The protest was about changes to school rules, and the government agreed to some of the students’ demands, ending the 36‑day march.
The families want the police to get justice and for their injuries to be taken seriously.
They also say that the police’s pain was overlooked while people talked about police violence against students.
The protest happened in several parts of Delhi, like Parliament Street and Connaught Place.
The families are asking the government to make sure the police are treated fairly.
This story shows how protests can hurt people on both sides.
Families of Delhi Police officers claim their injured members were ignored during July 20 student protest at Jantar Mantar.
A sub‑inspector’s daughter said her father was dragged, nearly lynched, and left unconscious for hours at RML Hospital.
Protesters demanded resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, withdrawal of FIRs, and reforms; the government agreed, ending the 36‑day demonstration.
Families called for justice and attention to police injuries, arguing that police suffering was overlooked amid claims of police violence against students.
The protest involved clashes across Delhi, including Parliament Street and Connaught Place, with police and student demonstrators confronting each other.
