Govt. move to de-notify Jantar Mantar follows SC suggestion that protest sites need more space, open air
The central government plans to remove Jantar Mantar’s status as a designated protest venue after a Supreme Court order on Oct. 9. The bench, chaired by Chief Justice Surya Kant, advised that protest locations should offer greater space and open‑air conditions. Officials are now tasked with identifying a more spacious site in Delhi for future demonstrations.
