On July 20, a protest organized by the CJP (Citizens for Justice and Peace) escalated into violence in the national capital. The demonstrators, who had gathered at the Jantar Mantar site, attempted to march toward the Parliament building, leading to a direct confrontation with law enforcement. In response to the march, police utilized tear gas and batons to disperse the crowd, resulting in multiple clashes and a significant number of detentions.

The Supreme Court has since weighed in on the events, emphasizing that a formal probe into the incident would be "meaningless" if it fails to fix responsibility for the violence. The court's stance highlights a demand for clear accountability regarding both the actions of the protesters and the police response. While the court has signaled its intent to oversee the situation, the specific mechanisms for determining this responsibility remain a point of ongoing legal and public discussion.

Currently, the situation remains tense as authorities continue to process the aftermath of the detentions. The core of the judicial concern rests on ensuring that the investigation does not merely document the violence but identifies those responsible for the escalation. The events have sparked a broader conversation about the right to protest versus the maintenance of public order in the capital, with the Supreme Court’s intervention serving as a pivotal moment in the legal handling of the demonstration.
