Supporters of a group described by media as India’s “cockroach” party attempt to march to India’s Parliament in New Delhi, but they face force from police, according to reports from Yahoo UK and The Independent. Both outlets describe a confrontation as youth activists try to move toward Parliament amid tight police control in the capital.
The Independent’s photo coverage emphasizes clashes in which police use batons and tear gas against demonstrators during the attempt to advance. Yahoo UK similarly reports that supporters are met with police batons as they march toward Parliament. The reporting indicates that the activists are organized as youth activists and are attempting to stage a protest or demonstration at the parliamentary site.
While the accounts focus on the use of force and the difficulty of reaching Parliament, both sources present the same overall sequence: protesters attempt to march, police block or disperse them, and violence escalates at the point of confrontation. The articles do not provide detailed information on arrests, injuries, or the group’s stated demands in the text provided.
