Thousands gathered at Delhi's Jantar Mantar for the Cockroach Janta Party's (CJP) "Chalo Sansad" march on Monday, with protesters alleging mobile internet services were blocked ahead of the demonstration. Several participants shared screenshots of a government message stating that internet services had been suspended in the area under official instructions. The claims surfaced as security was tightened across central Delhi before the Parliament march, organised over alleged NEET-related irregularities and demands for Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation. The alleged suspension quickly sparked debate on social media, with protesters questioning the timing of the restriction. Authorities had not immediately issued a public clarification on the reported internet disruption.
