Political tensions flared at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi as police clashed with Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leaders and protesters. The incident unfolded when security forces intervened to disperse a demonstration organized by AAP members, leading to dramatic scenes on the ground.
In the widely circulated video, AAP leader Saurabh Bharadwaj can be heard addressing protesters, telling them not to fear police lathis and claiming that Arvind Kejriwal would still attempt to visit despite a heavy police deployment. Law enforcement personnel quickly moved in, detaining Bharadwaj and other leaders to clear the area.
The video, originally posted by news agency PTI on X, has sparked widespread debate online. Social media users are divided, with supporters condemning the police action while critics emphasize the need to maintain public order. Authorities maintain that the actions were taken to uphold law and order in the capital.
