Revanth Reddy Calls Leaders to Delhi for AICC Protest
Telangana CM Revanth Reddy calls for massive AICC protest in Delhi on October 12, inviting key party leaders and representatives.
Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy has issued a major call to action, inviting prominent party leaders and public representatives to the national capital for a significant protest organized by the All India Congress Committee (AICC). The demonstration is scheduled to take place in Delhi on October 12.
Massive Mobilization Planned for October 12
According to an official statement from the Telangana Chief Minister's Office (CMO), the mobilization aims to bring together a wide spectrum of political leadership. The Chief Minister has specifically called upon:
- Members of Parliament (MPs)
- Rajya Sabha members
- Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs)
- Members of the Legislative Council (MLCs)
- Corporation chairpersons
- District Congress Committee (DCC) presidents
- Key Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) leaders
The directive seeks to ensure a strong presence from Telangana's leadership during the AICC-led programme in Delhi.
Heightened Security and Protests in Delhi
As political tensions rise, the capital city is already witnessing intense security operations. In a separate development, Delhi Police has been actively managing demonstrations. Reports indicate that approximately 1,000 protesters have been taken into preventive custody across the city during attempts to march toward Jantar Mantar.
The recent unrest involved a protest led by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. This has resulted in heavy security deployments, including:
- Heavy barricading at key locations like Dhaula Kuan
- Deployment of spike strips to control vehicle movement
- Extensive vehicle inspections by female police personnel
Police Enforcement and Detentions
DCP Kumar Abhishek confirmed that preventive checks have been implemented across the city to maintain public order. He noted that security operations have been continuous since last night and are expected to remain in effect throughout the day to prevent disruptions.
In the ongoing enforcement, several high-profile figures have already been detained by the authorities, including Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal and All India Students' Association (AISA) leader Neha Bora, amid the protests targeting the CEC.
