Protests were witnessed for a second consecutive day in central Delhi's Connaught Place as demonstrators attempted to march towards Jantar Mantar. With key roads and access points barricaded by authorities, small groups of protesters gathered across the inner and outer circles of Connaught Place, raising slogans before being detained. Delhi Police, alongside personnel from the Rapid Action Force, Central Reserve Police Force, and Border Security Force, maintained heavy security deployment across the area to preserve law and order. Student organisations and various political groups had called for flash demonstrations, but security personnel immediately detained gathering demonstrators into buses to prevent large assemblies.

00:00Here's now breaking news. Coming in, protest begins in Delhi at Cannot Place.
00:04Delhi cops detain several protesters. Heavy police force has been deployed at Cannot Place.
00:09This is day two of what we saw play out on October 10th.
00:13Remember, Cannot Place is perhaps as far as people are being able to reach
00:19as far as the central Delhi is concerned because the rest of it,
00:23all other entry points moving toward Jantar Mantar have completely been blocked.
00:28Even those that head toward Jantar Mantar from Cannot Place have also been blocked.
00:34So what happens at this point is those circles, we have an inner road circle
00:38and an outer road circle in Cannot Place.
00:40People end up gathering in smaller groups, in scattered groups.
00:44That's what we've been seeing since yesterday, even when we were on the ground.
00:47That's where people are ending up gathering because they can't move toward Jantar Mantar.
00:51So which is why we see the protests being held there itself.
00:55Now there isn't much of a protest.
00:56It's more like gatherings and sloganeerings taking place.
01:02But the police is leaving no stone unturned at this given point to ensure that nothing,
01:09nothing disrupts the law and order in the national capital,
01:12which is why such high action can be seen from the police and the personnel that's been deployed there.
01:19There's RAF, there is CRPF, there is the BSF alongside the police.
01:24And this has continued for the entirety of another day, October 11th.
01:30The entirety of the episode that happened on October 10th could be seen replaying on October 11th.
01:37It's evening time as you can see in the visuals,
01:38but protesters still continue to gather and continue to get detailed in these buses.
01:52Viewers, visuals still coming in from Karnat Place of the disturbances of the protesters gathering in the disruptions
02:02that still haunt central Delhi even now.
02:08Now, meanwhile, we have Anmol Bali joining us on the broadcast with more details on the same.
02:13Anmol, it's evening.
02:15It's in fact 6 in the evening.
02:18And yet we see these protesters for a second day gather at the Karnat Place
02:24and continue to, in fact, protest or raise slogans because they're immediately being detained.
02:30So there isn't exactly a protest that is being demonstrated.
02:34We have been witnessing protests since today afternoon
02:37and we have seen that a student organization affiliated with the left parties
02:42have called a flash protest here in Karnat Place.
02:44And currently also we are seeing visuals from the central Delhi, especially the Karnat Place area
02:49which enjoys proximity with the Jantar Mantar
02:51where we have seen the various student organizations affiliated with the left and wrong.
02:56The parties as well as the corporate Janta Party, the pressure group,
02:59have called their protest march towards the Jantar Mantar
03:01and we are seeing that in very few numbers, protesters, demonstrators gather in Karnat Place
03:06and we are also seeing that heavy deployment of parametric forces and any police is done.
03:10And as they see accumulation of protesters means five to six protectors
03:14if they gather near Karnat Place or near Jantar Mantar area,
03:18they are all detained by the Delhi police.
03:20And still we are seeing these kind of waves by the protesters where they gather
03:23and then they are detained by the Delhi police and the parametric forces
03:27because still they have heavily barricaded all roads going towards the Jantar Mantar and the central area.
03:33Right, thank you for bringing us those details.
03:37Viewers, more news coming in from Mumbai at this given point.
03:40Let's quickly take a look.
