Delhi Police detained Dhruv Rathee in Gurugram and Ratna Singh, legal adviser to the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), in Delhi on Saturday, ahead of the party’s proposed protest at Jantar Mantar, according to the information provided.
Rathee was detained from his residence in Sector 56, Gurugram, while Ratna Singh was detained in Delhi. The detentions reportedly took place as authorities prepared for the party’s planned demonstration in the national capital.
The police action comes ahead of the proposed CJP protest at Jantar Mantar, a designated location in Delhi where political parties and civil society groups regularly organise demonstrations to raise public and political issues.
The detention of Rathee and Singh ahead of the planned gathering has brought attention to the police arrangements surrounding the protest.
However, the specific reasons for their detention and the legal grounds for the police action were not immediately clear from the information available.
The proposed demonstration was expected to bring CJP supporters together in Delhi.
Police authorities have not been quoted in the information provided as giving a detailed explanation for the detentions.
The incident comes amid preparations for the proposed gathering at Jantar Mantar, where police arrangements are often made to regulate demonstrations and maintain public order.
