‘The situation could deteriorate’: Police had cautioned CJP organisers before the event; new video captures Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka brushing aside officials

A new video has surfaced on social media showing the recent student welfare protest at Delhi’s Jantar Mantar. Up until now, supporters of the CJP (Cockroach Janata Party) claimed that the police provoked the crowd into violence. However, this new footage tells a different story-it shows the police actively warning CJP supporters that anti-social elements had infiltrated the demonstration. In the viral clip, New Delhi DCP Sachin Sharma and Joint CP Deepak Purohit can be seen having a serious conversation with CJP spokespersons Saurabh Das and Abhishek Ranka. Rather than taking their concerns seriously, Das appears to brush off the officials.

Many are asking that if the party truly cared about a peaceful protest, why did they fail to arrange basic security or deploy volunteers after being alerted in time? A Violent Mob Frame-Up During the July 20 ‘Parliament March’ at Jantar Mantar, the crowd turned violent, attacking both police officers and journalists. Yet, in the aftermath, left-leaning commentators began painting the violent rioters as victims, doing everything possible to turn injured police officers into the villains of the story.
