Jantar Mantar in Delhi became a hub of protests on the day of Gandhi Jayanti. Opposition, students and activists assembled at the venue opposing the SIR of the electoral roll. Some are even demanding the resignation of Gyanesh Kumar, the Chief Election Commissioner, who is allegedly involved in electoral malpractices. Permission had been refused by the Delhi Police to assemble, and there were restrictions in central Delhi. As the protests progressed, heavy barricades were put up, and some leaders and protesters were arrested.
