New Delhi, Jul 20: Forces resorted to a baton-charge near Parliament Street after thousands of Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) protesters allegedly tried to breach barricades while marching towards Parliament on Monday.
At around 11.25 am, protesters attempted to push through multiple barricades erected in the high-security zone, sources said.
A scuffle-like situation ensued, in which some protesters and police personnel sustained minor injuries, they said.
Around 10-15 protesters were said to have been detained, sources said.
A heavy deployment of uniformed police personnel, along with officers in plain clothes, was in place across the area to maintain law and order and prevent protesters from moving towards Parliament, according to sources.
New Delhi Deputy Commissioner of Police Sachin Sharma, however, stated that not even a single Delhi Police personnel has used force on protesters so far. (PTI)
