Delhi traffic police have imposed diversions from 6 a.m. around key central intersections as the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) protests for the removal of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. The curbs matter because they disrupt daily commutes and show how authorities manage large-scale demonstrations.
Что произошло на второй день протеста
Полиция Дели сообщила, что пересечения начали в 6 утра.
Движение трафика было затронуто в окрестностях Джантара Мантар, Коннакта Плазы, Манди Хауса, Пател Чоук и нескольких других пересечениях в Лутенге-дель.
Персонал безопасности установил баррикады по обеим сторонам Окружной площади.
Эти баррикады ограничивали движение транспортных средств и пешеходов.
Other affected stretches included the Ashoka Road-Jantar Mantar Road roundabout.
Tolstoy Marg-Janpath crossing and Jai Singh Road-Sansad Marg crossing were also impacted.
Rail Bhawan roundabout, Patel Chowk and Gol Dak Khana saw traffic redirected.
Why it matters for commuters and citizens
- Daily commuters travelling to railway stations, inter-state bus terminals and the airport
- Residents and businesses in central Delhi neighborhoods
- Students and activists planning peaceful demonstrations
- Transport operators such as taxis, auto-rickshaws and bus services
- услуги спасения, которые могут столкнуться с задержками маршрутов
Запреты добавляют время в пути, заставляют людей искать альтернативные маршруты и увеличивают пробки на окраинах дорог.
For example, a worker heading to a Connaught Place office may need to use a longer path via the Lodhi Road flyover, adding minutes to the journey.
Студенты из студенческой федерации Индии заявили, что они проведут мирные демонстрации.
This means the barricaded zones could become focal points for protest activity.
Как мы дошли тут – история протеста
The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) announced a demand for the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar.
Они также призывали к ежедневным маршируям к Джантар-Мантару.
Prominent student groups, including the Students' Federation of India, pledged to continue protests until the demand is met.
At a press conference on October 10, 2026, CJP leader Ajinkya Shinde stated marches would be held daily until Mr. Kumar was removed.
Mr. Shinde also alleged that protesters, including Abhijeet Dipke, faced inhumane treatment during detention.
In response, Delhi police placed CJP leaders Mr. Dipke, Mr. Ranka and Mr. Das under preventive arrest.
They are scheduled to appear before the Executive Magistrate at Delhi Cantt. Police Station on October 11, 2026.
The traffic curbs are part of a broader security clampdown.
This clampdown aims to manage crowd movement and protect critical infrastructure.
It also ensures protest routes do not block essential services.
