00:00We have breaking news for you right at the top of this segment.
00:03This is a certain notification, an announcement of sorts that's coming from the Delhi Metrorail Corporation
00:10where they have brought in certain service updates and it's been posted on PlatformX
00:15about how the entry and exit at certain following metro stations that we will also bring to your notice
00:21will remain closed till further notice.
00:24However, the interchange facility will still be remaining available at three of those metro stations
00:32that we'll just take you through the list of.
00:34The three of those being Rajiv Chalk, Mundi House, New Delhi and also Central Secretary.
00:40Four of those stations that will in fact be available for interchange facilities
00:44but the entry and exit shall not be usable.
00:48For now, these are service updates that are being announced and brought to public notice
00:53by the Delhi Metrorail Corporation.
00:56So which of these stations will not be available?
00:58Number one, Janpat.
01:00Number two, Patel Chalk.
01:01Three Central Secretary.
01:03Rajiv Chalk.
01:04Seva Teert.
01:05Mundi House.
01:07Lok Kalyan Marg.
01:08INA.
01:10Chauri Bazaar.
01:11Ramakrishna.
01:12Ashram Marg.
01:13And New Delhi.
01:14Most of these pass through the central part of Delhi and this is on a certain line as well
01:21if we are to track some of these.
01:23But yes, it's in the vicinity of each other mostly.
01:27Most of these stations whose entry and exit shall remain shut.
01:32For certain services that are, it's a service update, it's a maintenance work perhaps that's underway.
01:37Okay, exact reasons have not yet been spelled out by the Delhi Metrorail Corporation,
01:44but they've called it a service update right now.
01:47Four of these stations out of the list of 11 that we just took you through
01:51shall be available for interchange facilities
01:53because these four stations have several of the lines that interconnecting metro lines
02:00that pass through these stations.
02:02Number one, of course, being Rajiv Chalk.
02:04Then we also have Central Secretariat, Mundi House and New Delhi Station.
02:11These are the four stations that we will be taking a look at for it to in fact be shut.
02:17However, what we are given to understand, preliminary details that are also coming in
02:23while this is a service update that's been given,
02:25this is also a security protocol that we see that's playing out
02:29because remember, Jantar Mantar was the exact location where earlier the CJP protests had taken place.
02:38Now, while this time the CJP members have announced that protests will happen in Mumbai,
02:42it will begin from Mumbai,
02:44yet security authorities do expect that there might be some kind of commotion
02:51or for that matter some kind of protest that may also play out in Jantar Mantar.
02:57So, which is why all of the stations, 11 of these metro stations across this very region
03:03in the vicinity of the Jantar Mantar region have been shut.
03:08We have Piyush Mishra joining us on the broadcast with more details on this.
03:12Piyush, these are 11 metro stations which in fact had earlier been shut during the CJP protests
03:19that were taking place.
03:21While this time the protests are to begin from Mumbai,
03:25yet police are leaving no stone unturned
03:28and the authorities are leaving no stone unturned
03:30to ensure that the situation doesn't go out of their hand in the national capital as well.
03:39Well, that's right, Shrihan.
03:41That's why all the precautions have been taken.
03:43Delhi police is very much ready.
03:48Parliamentary forces have also been called in
03:50to ensure that no low-and-order situation takes place.
03:54Remember that there was a meeting of India Glock at the Constitution.
03:57They decided to hold across the country.
04:00Week-long protests have been planned.
04:02And today, not only the India Alliance, but also CJP has called for the protest
04:07and they are demanding resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar.
04:12All what we are now given to understand is that
04:15around 11 metro stations to be shut,
04:18these are the metro stations which connect the central Delhi,
04:21which includes the metro stations like Rajiv Chalk,
04:24Mandi House, Central Secretariat.
04:26We also have the local landmark metro station
04:29and various others which connect
04:31centrally with the rest of Delhi.
04:35The decision has been taken by the authorities
04:37to ensure that protesters in large number
04:40do not gather there at Jantramantar or near Delhi.
04:44And yes, earlier itself,
04:48the authorities have made it very, very clear
04:50that no permission has been given to the protesters
04:54to protest near Jantramantar
04:56or near the security, highly secure areas.
05:02Now we'll have to see how the protesters
05:03are going to look into this request by the authorities.
05:06But as we are speaking,
05:08they've ensured that proper security is in place.
05:11And that's why a large number of police personnel
05:14and parametric forces have been deployed
05:17in various parts of Central Delhi.
05:18Right, Piyush. Thank you for bringing us
05:20all of those details.
05:21We also have Himanshu Mishra joining us
05:23on the broadcast with more details on the same.
05:25Himanshu, a very good morning to you.

09:31SIR battle, which is in the heart of this entire protest that is to begin a little while from now
09:39through the day. Now, we see CJP is back on the streets from today onwards, or at least that's
09:45what they've announced, stepping up its protest against the Election Commission and the CEC
09:49Gyanesh Kumar. CJP has announced this agitation to begin from Mumbai this time. The CJP has three
09:55demands, clearly. One, of course, is CEC Gyanesh Kumar's resignation, freezing the 2025 electoral
10:03list and the greater transparency in the appointment of the CEC. These are the three demands that they
10:10have put forward. One of them, they've in fact put an ultimatum to that 48 hours is the time that
10:15they
10:15give for the CEC's resignation, else they'll be back on the streets. Clearly, that deadline, of course,
10:20was not met. And now we see the CJP protest 2.0 waiting to take place. CJP founder Abhijit Dipke
10:29says the protests will continue across India until the CEC resigns and insists that they will go ahead
10:34even without any permission. But Mumbai police has denied permission for the protest, citing rules
10:40governing public gatherings and traffic concerns. And as the CJP escalates its stir, the India bloc is
10:47also launching its safe democracy week today with district level demonstrations against the election
10:51commission. NDA, meanwhile, is hitting back, questioning the CJP's intentions and accusing it
10:58of defending what it calls fake voters. Take a look at some of the reactions that have come in so
11:04far
11:04into the story.
11:07If he doesn't sack Ganesh Kumar, because after all, he is the one who appointed him. He was appointed
11:12by the prime minister and the home minister. Am I right? So they have the rights to sack him and
11:18they should better sack him because he didn't sack Ganesh Kumar. The anger against Ganesh Kumar
11:23who turned towards the prime minister and the home minister. And I don't understand why the immunity
11:28has been given to him. Why? Why is that necessary? Is he above the constitution of India? Is he
11:35above ordinary citizens? Is he some God figure?
12:06The
12:35So this is the story, viewers, that we
12:37will be following up very closely as the day progresses.
12:42Of course, two fronts that we are keeping our watch out for.
12:45What happens in Mumbai, where the CJP members themselves will be leading the very protest.
12:51As Saurabh Das was also saying that he's flown down to Mumbai, Abhijit Dipke of course is
12:56there already and that is where the protest shall begin, even though there is no police
13:01permission.
13:01The other part of the protest that is to be taking place in the national capital at Jantar
13:06Mantar, how that pans out is something we will also be taking a look at because security
13:10has already been beefed up in the central Delhi because of the protest announcements.
13:15Now, how many people turn up?
13:17How many people would be participating in?
13:18What are the political figures that we'll be seeing out on the streets joining hands with
13:23these protesters?
13:24Because there's one key difference this time when we speak about the protests.
13:28That's simply the fact that when the entire protest around the education reforms had taken
13:34place, demanding the resignation of the education minister, the first almost 20 days, there
13:40was no political affiliations of the CJP.
13:43They still do not, they still maintain that they don't have political affiliations, but
13:47they didn't have any political support as well for that matter.
13:49It was much later that we'd seen political leaders reaching out to them when Sonam Bangchuk
13:55had also joined the entire protests in the national capital on that hunger strike.
13:59And now this time, it's a different scenario with political parties already joining hands
14:04with the CJP in their efforts to protest against the CEC.
