Delhi Police has removed Additional DCP Sandeep Lamba from protest duty at Jantar Mantar after a viral video appeared to show him slapping a woman during the Cockroach Janta Party’s (CJP) ‘Chalo Sansad’ march. According to reports, he has been reassigned to his original posting in the North East district following a senior-level review, though officials said he was also injured during the clashes. The incident was cited before the Delhi High Court during hearings on alleged police excesses, with the court directing authorities to preserve CCTV footage and related records. Meanwhile, TMC MP Saket Gokhale sought an FIR against Lamba, demanding accountability for alleged police misconduct during the protests.
