A massive protest march by INDIA Alliance cadre workers, including Congress, Samajwadi Party, Left, AISA, and NSUI members, snaked through Barakhamba Road towards Connaught Place in Delhi. Protesters were seen sitting atop buses as crowds converged at the intersection. Members of the legal fraternity and citizens from various walks of life also joined the demonstration. One participant, identifying herself as a mother of Gen Zs with no political affiliation, stated she arrived in solidarity with the country's youth after her relative was previously detained.
