In a Nutshell:
- Protesters and journalists were discreetly recorded during the CJP demonstration.
- Thousands gathered for a planned march towards Parliament.
- Police denied permission for the march and sealed nearby routes.
- Several metro stations around the protest area were closed.
- Mobile internet disruption was also reported in parts of Central Delhi.
Why it Matters
Recording protesters and journalists without clearly explaining its purpose raises questions about privacy and police transparency.
What We Think
Police may record demonstrations for security and evidence, but discreet monitoring can create fear among protesters and journalists. Authorities should clarify why the footage was collected, how it will be used and who can access it.
