India’s Cockroach Janta Party Leader Detained Amid Crackdown on Protests

Delhi police detained CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke on Friday as officers sought to stop a rally demanding the election chief’s resignation. Police sealed Central Park in Connaught Place and deployed police and paramilitary personnel. Demonstrators were protesting a voter-list revision they say favors Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s BJP; the Election Commission denies the accusation. Dipke had been detained the previous weekend, then released; two other CJP leaders were also held. Friday’s protest drew more detentions
