The Delhi Police have refused permission for the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) to hold its proposed march to Parliament on Monday.
The party has been protesting at Jantar Mantar since June 20 and had announced plans to march to Parliament as the Monsoon Session begins.
What Police Said
Delhi DCP Sachin Sharma said the CJP neither applied for nor received permission for the march.
Police also reminded protesters that Section 163 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) is in force, allowing protests only at the designated site of Jantar Mantar and only with prior approval.
Any unauthorised march, gathering or demonstration outside the permitted area will invite legal action.
Tight Security Around Parliament
With Parliament convening on Monday, Delhi Police have stepped up security across the capital.
Additional personnel have been deployed around Parliament and other key government installations to prevent any disruption and maintain law and order.
Protest Continues
The development comes days after activist Sonam Wangchuk, who had been on a prolonged hunger strike, was shifted to a hospital under medical supervision.
Following his hospitalisation, CJP founder Abhijit Dipke has continued the hunger strike as the protest enters its second month.
Police Appeal
Delhi Police have urged people not to participate in any unauthorised gathering or march and to cooperate with security arrangements.
Despite the denial of permission, the CJP has said it intends to proceed with its planned march from Jantar Mantar to Parliament. Authorities have warned that any violation of the prohibitory orders will be dealt with under the law.
