Protesters hurl stones at police in central Delhi

The protesters raised slogans against CEC Gyanesh Kumar and the government. When two Delhi Police officials from the Commando Unit ran and chased the mob, nabbing a protester, a section of the group picked up a brick, hurling it at the policeman who ducked and escaped.

Another protester was seen carrying a log of wood and pointing it at the security forces. “Tera sar faad dunga dobara aagya idhar toh” (I’ll smash your head if you come here again.),” he shouted.

In another incident, the same mob that pelted stones at cops threatened an outlet owner who had opened the shutters for some maintenance work that was underway at Mughlai Junction, Connaught Place. The group threatened the trader to shut down the shop or face the music, with the latter complying as the police prevented groups from reaching Jantar Mantar.
