The full story

Members and leaders of the Bharatiya Janata Party's Mahila Morcha staged protests outside the Congress headquarters in Delhi. Organisers and participants marched to demand an apology from Congress MP Rahul Gandhi, alleging that he and other party leaders misbehaved with and disrespected women police personnel during previous demonstrations. Protesters also called for the expulsion of a Congress MP and JNU professor facing sexual harassment allegations involving female students. Police formed heavy barricades, used force to stop the marchers, and detained hundreds of participants—including several MPs, MLAs, and senior party figures—before releasing them later. Protesters accused Congress workers of pushing women and hurling abusive remarks during the confrontations.
