A stone-filled truck found parked near Jantar Mantar in Delhi ahead of the July 20 march is at the center of an ongoing dispute. Scroll.in reports, citing a report, that the truck had been in police custody for four days. The Delhi Police deny allegations that the vehicle was deliberately deployed near the protest site. According to The Hindu, the police state that claims asserting the truck was intentionally positioned near Jantar Mantar, or outside any political party office, are “false and misleading.”
The two reports present the same core issue: the truck’s presence at the protest-related location and questions raised about how it got there. While outside claims link the truck’s placement to potential intent, Delhi Police maintain that the vehicle was already under their control before the allegations surfaced. The reports do not indicate additional findings beyond the custody timeline and the denial of deliberate deployment. The matter remains tied to the period leading up to the July 20 march.
