Congress leader Kanhaiya Kumar is arrested in Delhi after a complaint from the Kerala House administration, according to reports citing Delhi Police and sources. The incident is linked to an altercation at Kerala House on Jantar Mantar Road, where student protests are taking place. The reports state that an exchange between Kumar and the Resident Commissioner leads the Resident Commissioner to call Delhi Police and request that Kumar be removed from the premises.
Following the complaint, Delhi Police arrest Kumar and take him into custody. One account says he is taken to Jaffarpur Kalan police station, while another describes the complaint and police involvement at the Kerala House location near the ongoing protest area.
Kumar is reported to have criticised the action, and his office states that he is taken to the police station. Both outlets describe the core sequence as complaint by the Resident Commissioner, police intervention, and Kumar’s subsequent arrest. The reports do not provide further details on charges or the specific allegations beyond the alleged altercation.
