The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) on Monday launched its 'Chalo Sansad' march from Jantar Mantar amid heavy security deployment, with police using lathis to disperse sections of the crowd as protesters attempted to move forward. Authorities reiterated that no permission had been sought or granted for the march to Parliament. Meanwhile, climate and education activist Sonam Wangchuk said he would end his hunger strike if the government accepted responsibility for shortcomings in the education system or if Members of Parliament assured him the issue would be raised in Parliament. The protest comes as security remains heightened across central Delhi during the opening day of Parliament's Monsoon Session.
