Delhi Police said the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) has not yet sought permission for its proposed September 5 protest march from India Gate to Delhi Police headquarters. The 2.5-km march is expected to involve families of NEET aspirants who died by suicide, alleged victims of police brutality, students and youth organisations. Police said Section 163 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita is already in force in the New Delhi district and that protests and marches are permitted only at designated locations such as Jantar Mantar with prior approval. Officers cited security and traffic concerns and said they would push organisers to shift the venue. The CJP said it would inform police about the protest in the coming days. (PC: PTI)
