Delhi tightens security as CJP plans ‘Chalo Sansad’ march to Parliament
Summary
Delhi police have deployed a three‑tier security cordon and issued traffic advisories ahead of the Cockroach Janata Party’s (CJP) planned “Chalo Sansad” march on July 20, coinciding with the opening of Parliament’s Monsoon Session. The protest, centred on alleged NEET 2026 paper leaks and calls for the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, has drawn thousands of supporters – the CJP claims around 20,000 – at Jantar Mantar. Police say no permission has been sought or granted for the march and have invoked prohibitory orders under Section 163 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita. Activist Sonam Wangchuk continues a hunger strike in Safdarjung Hospital, saying he will end it if political leaders raise education‑accountability issues in the session. The situation is being closely monitored for possible police‑protester clashes and impact on parliamentary proceedings.
