An Outlook India reporter was among those injured during the police crackdown, with medical records documenting pellet wounds even as Delhi Police deny using the weapon.

Delhi Police has just brought in a totally damaged car and placed it outside the protest site at Jantar Mantar.
Why have you placed this car here @DelhiPolice? What do you intend to show with this car?
Everyone should remember this car has been brought here in this condition - important to record before they can blame it on peaceful protesters.
Police were taking the detained students away in a truck from the Chembur student protest.
Then, out of nowhere, an uncle came and opened the truck's latch, and all the students jumped out and ran away.
Man, I love my country so much sometimes. 😭
Pellet guns, shock batons used against protesters in Delhi.
This reporting confirms the extent of cruelty and brutality unleashed by the Modi govt on India’s young people. https://t.co/O1cJ2JrJlX
Delhi police can say it didn't use Shock-batons. But Shock batons were used by RAF gear, which was working alongside Delhi Police and deployed in and around Jantar Mantar.
#BREAKING Sr Adv Kapil Sibal files a writ petition in the #SupremeCourt as party-in-person against the 'merger' of opposition political parties.
Sibal challenges the interpretation of 10th schedule which allows splinter groups to escape anti-defection law by adopting the route of merger.

CJP will continue its protests until the Government accepts its demands for:
1. Dharmendra Pradhan’s resignation
2. Rs 1 crore compensation for families of children who died by suicide
3. NO PROSECUTION OF PEACEFUL PROTESTERS
4. All police officials involved in committing atrocities must be prosecuted.
Let's be clear about few things:
1. Public at large are supporting students but this should not be considered as a political support for any party or outfit.
2. Students are frustrated with repeated paper leaks and govt missed the opportunity of addressing the issue.
I write a letter to the Prime Minister and the Home Minister, as the SCBA President and a concerned citizen, seeking judicial enquiry and immediate action on unprovoked police lathi-charge during the peaceful student demonstrations at Jantar Mantar and Sansad Marg, New Delhi.
