UN Expresses Concern Over Mass Detentions During Delhi Protests
Protests in Delhi have led to expected traffic disruptions on Tuesday, October 13, as the Delhi Traffic Police warned of potential impacts at various locations. Key disruption points include Panchkuian and Mandi House roundabouts, Minto Road, and several junctions in Connaught Place. Over 30,000 police and paramilitary personnel have been deployed since October 10 due to protests led by the Cockroach Janta Party and Congress, demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. While air and rail travel are not expected to face significant disruptions, the police advised motorists to avoid non-essential travel in affected areas and to follow diversion signs. The situation remains dynamic, with traffic diversions and restrictions being implemented based on ground conditions.
