Govt De-notifies Jantar Mantar as Protest Site Following SC Advice
On October 12, 2026, the Delhi Police officially de-notified Jantar Mantar in central Delhi as a designated protest site. This decision followed a Supreme Court order on October 9, where the court and the Union government agreed that central Delhi was too cramped for protests, lacking basic amenities like washrooms, medical aid, and drinking water. The court urged the government to find alternative, more spacious protest sites in the capital.
