Jantar Mantar no longer a protest site: All about Ramlila Maidan, Burari Ground, and CBD Ground
The government has removed Jantar Mantar’s status as a designated protest zone, prompting backlash from activists and opposition parties who claim the move curtails citizens’ right to demonstrate. Officials cited the need to open alternative venues such as Ramlila Maidan, Burari Ground and the Central Business District ground for public gatherings. The decision has sparked debate over protest freedoms.
