Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) leader Ajinkya Shinde on Saturday announced daily protests demanding Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar’s removal following a police crackdown in Delhi. “Every day, there will be marches to Jantar Mantar from now on, until Gyanesh Kumar is sacked as CEC,” Shinde said. The announcement came after Delhi Police detained over 4,000 protesters during demonstrations near Jantar Mantar, according to Hindustan Times. CJP leaders Abhijeet Dipke, Ashutosh Ranka and Saurav Das were also detained after arriving in the capital. Opposition leaders, including Mamata Banerjee and Arvind Kejriwal, were detained while attempting to join protests over alleged irregularities in electoral rolls.
