Newsclick Report 23 Feb 2020 ChandBagh Protest Thousands of protesters took to the streets in separate demonstrations in various parts of Delhi on Sunday against the CAA, NPR and NRC. Among the areas where protests took place and are ongoing are Jaffrabad, Khureji, Chandbagh and Hauz Rani. In many of these protests, people have blocked the roads. Police have been deployed in large numbers. As has been the case with the protests in the city over the past two months, these mobilisations too saw the large participation of women and children. Protesters denounced the framing of laws based on religion and demanded that the integrity of the constitution be protected. In the Jaffrabad area, over two thousand people gathered just below the metro station, waving flags and shouting slogans. The protest which began late on Saturday night continues as of filing this report. The sheer number of protesters forced the police to push back their barricades. One of the protesters, speaking to Newsclick, urged the government and the Prime Minister to listen to the voices and sentiments of the thousands of people gathered there on the issue of the CAA, NRC and NPR and take the necessary action. The entry and exit gates of the Jaffrabad metro station were closed after the protest broke out. Chandbagh also witnessed a similar protest with more than a thousand people taking out a march to Raj Ghat on Sunday morning. They were stopped midway by the police. The protest continues with thousands of people occupying the road and raising slogans against the CAA-NPR-NRC. The CRPF was deployed in the area.
