Celebrities extend support to the protest
The march also saw the presence of other celebrities who joined the gathering in support of the cause. Actors including Shabana Azmi and Poonam Pandey attended the protest at Jantar Mantar on Sunday.
Shabana Azmi shared a heartfelt moment during the event when she met a protester who had been on a hunger strike for several days and kissed his hand. Poonam Pandey also addressed the media and said that the protest was focused on students and their concerns rather than being connected to politics or religion.
On Monday morning Prakash Raj and Shabana Azmi also supported students who were participating in an indefinite hunger strike along with climate activist Sonam Wangchuk by helping them break their fast. Several other celebrities including Hrithik Roshan Sonakshi Sinha and Chinmayi Sripaada have also shown support for Wangchuk online.
CJP raises claims about police action during protest
The protest continued to draw attention as CJP alleged that its founder Abhijeet Dipke was detained by police during the march. The organisation also claimed that security personnel used force against protesters.
CJP spokesperson Saurav Das urged members of Parliament to support the students and raised concerns over the reported detention. The development came after Sonam Wangchuk was taken from the protest location and shifted to a hospital by police earlier.
Thousands of students activists and professionals gathered in central Delhi for the march. Reports from the event stated that security arrangements were increased around the area as protesters attempted to move towards Parliament.
