Why no police at the Jantar Mantar protest site?
Heavy crowds. Volunteers are managing the queues.
A day after the clashes during the Cockroach Janata Party's (CJP) march to Parliament, the atmosphere at Delhi's Jantar Mantar is markedly different.
Despite hundreds of protesters continuing to gather at the protest site and a steady stream of political leaders and Members of Parliament visiting through the day, there is little visible police presence at the entrance to the venue. The entry points are not being manned by police personnel, and no metal detector screening of bags or luggage was visible at the time of reporting.
Instead, the movement of people into the protest site is being coordinated by CJP volunteers and members of the Students' Federation of India (SFI), who are managing the queues, guiding supporters and maintaining order as more people continue to arrive.
The protest remains underway at Jantar Mantar, with organisers continuing their sit-in and supporters gathering despite the events of the previous day's Parliament march.

@indSupremeCourt you don't have time to watch video of police brutality at #CJPprotest but if it was @realsmayraina's #latentshow episodes judiciary would not have wasted a second to punish those who laughed at a joke.
@OfficialDMRC@DCP_DelhiMetro Thank you for keeping metro stations clean but it's not enough. I just want DMRC to take some strict action to educate people on keeping platforms clean. Please let me know if you need any suggestions on how we can do it.
Hey, if you need campaign ideas to educate and spread awareness about using dustbin and keeping metro stations clean, let me know! Maybe if there will be dustbins at platforms this will not happen @OfficialDMRC
@elonmusk you talk about making Mars habitable for humans but what do you think about Earth sustainability Or you're just about the next big thing that rich would dig into, to make you a profit. Can technology save Earth?
