00:01So in case you're wondering why did Delhi police deny permission to even this protest
00:05which was a call up to land up at Central Park by Abhijit Dipke, the CJP founder, here's why.
00:11Now the reason that you can see a heavy police deployment there and around Central Park,
00:16according to the police, there could have been a traffic disruption because this is
00:19right in the heart of National Capital. Unauthorized gathering can disrupt traffic.
00:24If you know it's authorized, it's allowed, you'll know exactly where to go, what to do,
00:27but unauthorized, you cannot really know if it goes out of control.
00:31According to the police, the gathering will cause an inconvenience,
00:35inconvenience, I correct myself, to the commuters, especially on a working day at a time,
00:40especially when people are heading back to their home.
00:42The crowd could spill over into protected zones.
00:45Eventually we also understand Codot Place is then connected to certain areas which are the VVIP zones.
00:51Crowd could affect public order and safety is what the police is claiming.
00:56Narrow lanes may restrict ambulance movement, in case required, into some of these areas.
01:02Gathering could obstruct emergency services is the reason given by the Delhi police to deny services.
01:07And then Section 163 BNS, which is a prohibitory order, which is currently in force,
01:12and that large gatherings cannot really be permitted in areas like this.
01:16And that violation can invite action under Section 223 of the BNS, which is the new law.
01:24No nod for the rally. Why is that?
01:26No permission was sought for the gathering.
01:29So when this clarion call was made by Abhijit Dipki, according to the police,
01:32but you didn't take any permission, how are you deciding on this protest?
01:37Unauthorized risk could lead to law and order situation in that area, especially which is a busy marketplace.
01:45Quoting the previous Cockroach Janata Party protest, Delhi police says,
01:48earlier protests did disrupt public order.
01:51It led to law and order issues.
01:53Earlier protests led to even violence and property damage.
01:56What is the assurance that it will not happen in a busy marketplace like a nod place,
02:01even though Abhijit Dipki maintained that it is going to be peaceful,
02:05they only want tirangas to be hoisted at Central Park.
02:08A letter, meanwhile, has been written to Prime Minister.
02:10Let's go across to that big breaking news.
