Fresh protests against the Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) take place in Delhi, with police detaining demonstrators and registering multiple cases related to the rallies. The protests are held to demand the resignation of CEC Rajiv Kumar, according to reports.
The Hindu says Delhi Police register 20 FIRs after the protest, with allegations including assault on police officers. It reports that detentions occur across the national capital, involving more than 7,000 people, including opposition leaders and activists. India Today similarly reports a fresh anti-CEC protest in Delhi and police detain protesters, describing the enforcement action during the demonstrations.
Taken together, the outlets agree that the protests draw large crowds and lead to widespread police action, including arrests/detentions and criminal case registrations, though they vary in the emphasis on the specific charges and the number of FIRs reported.
