A game of hide-and-seek: Protesters duck into washrooms, gurdwara amid capital-wide clampdown
During a recent police crackdown on anti‑government demonstrations in Delhi, protestors in Connaught Place used washrooms and a gurdwara to avoid arrest. The tactic was part of a broader pattern across central Delhi, where demonstrators sought refuge in public and religious spaces to evade police custody. Authorities responded with increased security, but the strategy highlighted the protesters’ efforts to stay free.
