[00:00:00] has increased the pressure, you can understand it like this, that today
[00:00:04] a huge crowd was gathered on those streets of Delhi to show strength,
[00:00:07] where a day earlier, heavy security forces were seen everywhere,
[00:00:11] Rahul Gandhi called this protest the procession of Shiva,
[00:00:15] in which anyone can join, this
[00:00:17] is Tandav,
[00:00:20] this is Shiva's dance,
[00:00:23] there is no planning in it, no
[00:00:27] plan is needed, this dance is going on, this is Shiva's
[00:00:31] dance going on, anyone can come to Shiva's procession,
[00:00:34] to
[00:00:39] answer Rahul Gandhi, BJP put forward two faces, one
[00:00:43] was Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan and the other was
[00:00:46] Lok Sabha MP Anurag Thakur, what did they say, just
[00:00:50] listen to that now,
[00:00:54] they were saying, Congress
[00:00:57] is Shiva's
[00:01:01] procession, those who oppose Ram are talking
[00:01:04] about Shiva's procession, this
[00:01:08] is not Shiva's procession, this
[00:01:12] is a
[00:01:15] group of miscreants who are trying to spread
[00:01:19] chaos
[00:01:21] on the streets, Rahul Gandhi
[00:01:25] ji
[00:01:28] is the Leader of Opposition for namesake.
[00:01:31] But he is a leader who doesn't know facts, doesn't know logic,
[00:01:35] doesn't know rules, regulations, law,
[00:01:38] he only knows how
[00:01:41] to spread chaos, how to bring
[00:01:45] instability, how to demean constitutional
[00:01:48] posts and institutions and how
[00:01:51] to defame India all over the world,
[00:01:54] how to weaken the image, so BJP is calling the opposition's Supreme Court
[00:01:58] move an attempt by Rahul Gandhi to intimidate the judicial system,
[00:02:02] but it seems that the fight is not going to stop here,
[00:02:06] after almost a week of filling the streets of Delhi with protests
[00:02:09] and conveying their message from the Supreme Court to the President's House,
[00:02:13] the matter can go further, the signs of which Rahul Gandhi
[00:02:17] and the country's parliament gave in his press conference, today we
[00:02:20] are going to the Supreme Court, tomorrow
[00:02:23] something else will happen, the idea is written
[00:02:27] above, just do that.
[00:02:31] No plan is needed,
[00:02:34] what do you think, we made a plan in Akashwani Bhawan,
[00:02:37] the plan
[00:02:41] Senggar and Ravish Ranjan Shukla, was that we would go by bus, sit down, get
[00:02:44] arrested, the police would not let us go,
[00:02:48] the plan was changed, did the result come from the plan or
[00:02:52] from no plan, so through this guerrilla style of politics,
[00:02:55] Rahul Gandhi intends to surprise further, meanwhile the government
[00:02:59] has also taken that this opposition protest can last long,
[00:03:03] so the central government has extended the deployment
[00:03:06] of paramilitary personnel in Delhi, according to sources, the deployment
[00:03:10] of 2000 paramilitary personnel in Delhi has now been increased to one month,
[00:03:14] it is being said that this decision was taken here after
[00:03:17] increasing security and intelligence information, but still this
[00:03:21] question remains as to where this movement against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar
[00:03:24] will stop, a large extent of this
[00:03:28] will be known after the Supreme Court's hearing.
[00:03:32] for every important news Look,
[00:03:38] Indian politics is currently in a very decisive phase. What
[00:03:42] is happening in the country at this time is completely unprecedented
[00:03:45] and unprecedented. It has never happened before that on one issue
[00:03:49] and at one time, the four big posts
[00:03:52] or four big faces of the democratic system in the country,
[00:03:56] the opposition has put the ball in their court, as happened in the Gyanesh Kumar case,
[00:04:00] the matter has been taken to the President, who is considered
[00:04:04] the head of the nation in the Constitution, and the Prime Minister
[00:04:07] is being targeted, who is considered the head of the government in the Constitution,
[00:04:11] a petition has been filed before the Chief Justice of India,
[00:04:14] who is considered the head of the Indian judiciary
[00:04:18] and the protector of the Constitution, and the main target is Chief Election Commissioner
[00:04:22] Gyanesh Kumar, who is considered the head of an autonomous
[00:04:25] and independent constitutional body that maintains democracy
[00:04:29] in the country. So we can say that at this time, India's democratic
[00:04:33] system is going through a major ordeal, a constitutional
[00:04:36] crisis seems to be emerging, that is because
[00:04:40] if Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar is removed,
[00:04:44] then it will be like stamping the opposition's allegations of vote theft,
[00:04:47] then the validity of the elections conducted under the leadership of Gyanesh Kumar
[00:04:51] and the decisions taken in the Election Commission will also be questioned,
[00:04:55] this means that in such a situation, the elections
[00:04:59] conducted under the leadership of Gyanesh Kumar will have to be canceled,
[00:05:02] and this will be a very strange situation, but if no action
[00:05:06] is taken against Gyanesh Kumar and the opposition also remains adamant,
[00:05:09] then protests can increase from Parliament to the streets. Obviously,
[00:05:13] no one here would want that, so in such a situation,
[00:05:16] currently the eyes of the whole country are on the Supreme Court,
[00:05:19] where today amidst a huge show of strength, 11 opposition leaders
[00:05:23] including Rahul Gandhi have filed a petition, it is possible that tomorrow
[00:05:27] the Supreme Court will hear that petition, currently the politics of the country
[00:05:31] is standing at a very decisive turn, let's see what
[00:05:35] happens in this matter next. So
[00:05:38] this is the situation that is currently visible here, on the other hand, Indian democracy
[00:05:42] is also undergoing a test and Delhi's Jantar Mantar has been such a place
[00:05:45] that has shown the beauty and strength of democracy,
[00:05:48] but now the chapter of movements in Jantar Mantar
[00:05:52] has been closed forever, why did such a situation arise
[00:05:56] and what argument has been given behind it, now let's open its file
[00:06:00] in the court.
[00:06:07] Bharat Mata ki
[00:06:09] Jai.
[00:06:26] Jantar Mantar in Delhi is not just a road, it is also
[00:06:29] a way to reach the ears of power.
[00:06:32] No,
[00:06:36] this was not just a place to protest, this was the place
[00:06:40] from where voices rose that changed laws
[00:06:44] and even changed the direction
[00:06:45] of politics.
[00:06:51] Be it Anna Hazare's movement, Bharat
[00:06:55] Mata
[00:06:58] ki Jai, Nirbhaya's fight for justice,
[00:07:01] or
[00:07:07] the wrestlers'
[00:07:08] protest,
[00:07:13] or the recent protests, whenever people felt that
[00:07:17] their voice was not reaching the government, they turned to Jantar Mantar.
[00:07:21] But the same Jantar Mantar that for decades
[00:07:24] gave space to the voice of democratic protest,
[00:07:28] its doors have been closed for movements.
[00:07:31] Now,
[00:07:36] protests will not be allowed at Jantar Mantar in Delhi.
[00:07:39] On the instructions of the Ministry of Home Affairs, Delhi
[00:08:42] 23 wrestlers' protest or June-July
[00:08:45] 2026 cockroach Janata Party's
[00:08:48] movement.
[00:08:58] Jantar Mantar, which has witnessed hundreds of protests for the past
[00:09:01] many years, will no longer be a protest site. In fact, Delhi Police Commissioner
[00:09:05] Anurag Kumar has issued an order stating that on the recommendations
[00:09:09] of the Ministry of Home Affairs, it has been decided that Jantar
[00:09:13] Mantar will no longer be a protest site and no kind
[00:09:16] of protests will be held here.
[00:09:19] So, the government has now removed Jantar Mantar as a place
[00:09:23] for protests in the national capital.
[00:09:26] Jantar Mantar has been a designated
[00:09:29] place for protests since 1993.
[00:09:33] Before 1993, protests were held at Boat Club
[00:09:37] near India Gate. In 2017,
[00:09:40] the NGT decided to ban
[00:09:43] protests at Jantar Mantar, but in July
[00:09:47] 2018, the Supreme Court quashed the NGT's
[00:09:50] ban on Jantar Mantar and allowed peaceful
[00:09:54] protests at Jantar Mantar. But
[00:09:56] for decades,
[00:09:59] the place in Central Delhi that showed whether
[00:10:03] times are really changing has now been changed.
[00:10:06] This decision comes at a time when
[00:10:09] the Chief Election in Delhi
[00:10:25] wherever it happens, there will be Jantar Mantar, wherever they protest, that's Jantar
[00:10:28] Mantar, wherever they protest, there's Jantar
[00:10:30] Mantar.
[00:10:35] What's going on within the government regarding Jantar Mantar, this
[00:10:38] was already clear last week when
[00:10:42] the government didn't allow opposition leaders and protestors
[00:10:45] who came on the appeal of the Cockroach Janata Party
[00:10:48] to enter here. Jantar Mantar was heavily
[00:10:52] fortified. Then
[00:11:25] the place that has been decided now includes Delhi's historic Ramlila
[00:11:29] Ground, which has been a witness to many big political
[00:11:32] movements. In the 70s, the movement that shook
[00:11:36] the foundation of the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi's power
[00:11:39] was also a product of this
[00:11:41] Ramlila Maidan.
[00:11:44] This historic Ramlila Maidan, its history is more than
[00:11:47] 100 years old, and in 1911,
[00:11:51] Ramlila performances started here, and after that, from Ramlila
[00:11:55] performances to a political stage,
[00:11:58] every leader has got a stage from here, be it Deendayal
[00:12:01] Upadhyaya, Indira Gandhi, when Bangladesh was liberated,
[00:12:04] Indira Gandhi held a huge public meeting here and its celebration
[00:12:08] was held here, after that, during the JP movement, Ramlila
[00:12:12] Maidan was also in the news, in recent days, if we talk
[00:12:16] about the last decades, Anna Hazare's historic protest
[00:12:19] was held here, after that Baba Ramdev's
[00:12:23] protest was held here, and after
[00:12:25] that he was also lathi-charged, so Ramlila Maidan is known
[00:12:29] as a very political ground in Delhi.
[00:12:32] Yes, but Jantar Mantar
[00:12:35] has been the closest
[00:12:39] place to reach the government
[00:12:42] because from here, Parliament House is almost
[00:12:46] 1.5 kilometers away and big government offices,
[00:12:50] from the Prime Minister's residence to big government offices,
[00:12:53] are also nearby. But for movements,
[00:12:57] Jantar Mantar is now a thing of the past.
[00:13:00] From
[00:13:03] Delhi, with Mukesh Singh
[00:13:06] Bureau Report, NDTV India.
[00:13:09] So
[00:13:14] Jantar Mantar in Delhi has become history in terms of movements
[00:13:18] and protests, but in Uttar Pradesh,
[00:13:21] Congress feels that they don't even need to learn
[00:13:25] from history, as the situation is, the signs
[00:13:29] for its political future in UP are not looking good,
[00:13:32] at a time when only a few months are left for elections,
[00:13:36] the internal conflict of Congress has come out openly,
[00:13:39] so openly that shoes and slippers were hurled,
[00:13:42] the way the new leadership of Congress has been welcomed
[00:13:46] in UP, it seems that the trailer of Congress's electoral
[00:13:50] chapter in 2027 has been seen, now the question is that
[00:13:53] if Congress keeps fighting itself, then how will it fight elections?
[00:14:17] This is called spinning cotton and weavers fighting among themselves.
[00:14:20] Only a short time is left for the assembly elections in UP
[00:14:23] and instead of fighting BJP, Congress
[00:14:27] leaders are fighting among themselves. What happened
[00:14:30] at the UP Congress headquarters in Lucknow on Sunday makes it seem
[00:14:34] that will Congress enter the 2027 electoral battle
[00:14:37] relying on such leaders?
[00:14:39] The
[00:14:45] occasion was special, new office bearers of Congress were taking
[00:14:48] charge, but these pictures became
[00:14:50] headlines.
[00:14:56] Congress workers were seen settling scores with each other,
[00:14:59] someone is shouting, someone has a shoe in hand, pushing and shoving is happening
[00:15:03] and all this is happening in Congress
[00:15:05] headquarters.
[00:15:08] Now look at this picture, former state president Ajay Rai looks angry,
[00:15:12] senior leader Pramod Tiwari is explaining to him with folded hands,
[00:15:16] Pramod Tiwari's daughter and new state president of Congress, Aradhana
[00:15:19] Mishra is also explaining to him.
[00:15:20] New
[00:15:27] state working president Imran Masood is listening to him like a friend
[00:15:31] with his arm around his shoulder, but let's find out why
[00:15:34] this commotion happened. So,
[00:15:38] it is being told that the dispute took place between the supporters of former
[00:15:42] state president Ajay Rai and the supporters of UP Mahila Congress president
[00:15:45] Mamta Chaudhary.
[00:15:51] I am not
[00:15:52] fond of
[00:15:56] watching.
[00:16:14] The video of the incident is going viral, it is being told that Mamta Chaudhary commented
[00:16:18] after seeing Ajay Rai at the oath-taking ceremony that I am not interested
[00:16:21] in seeing him. After
[00:16:24] this, the situation there deteriorated, it is being told that Ajay Rai's supporters
[00:16:28] said, "Stay in your limits."
[00:16:32] I'm not interested in seeing him.
[00:16:34] What
[00:16:36] happened? Not interested in seeing him.
[00:16:56] From here, the tension escalated and kept on escalating, I am not interested
[00:17:00] in seeing him.
[00:17:01] Not
[00:17:04] interested in seeing him. Talk.
[00:17:10] Continuous efforts were made to pacify Ajay Rai, he was very angry,
[00:17:13] Pramod Tiwari was seen pleading with him
[00:17:16] with folded hands.
[00:17:24] He is abusing me. The anger of Ajay Rai's supporters was at its peak, their anger
[00:17:27] was also visible in front of the new party officials.
[00:17:31] He is abusing me.
[00:17:34] Abuse me. With Aradhana Mishra,
[00:18:07] not only جي, we ourselves don't know what happened or
[00:18:11] why he got angry and what all
[00:18:14] happened? He just came back to me and moved past me
[00:18:18] and after moving ahead, he came back and started shouting that
[00:18:22] stay in your limits, stay in your limits, what is your status? Then I showed
[00:18:25] a little anger that sir, look, don't talk about status. In the meantime,
[00:18:29] his former PS and other people
[00:18:33] were there and I don't know some boys in black shirt, red shirt,
[00:18:37] shoes, slippers, slaps, everything
[00:18:40] started flying at women. Mamta Chaudhary says that
[00:18:44] she will tell all the incidents to party officials, however,
[00:18:47] in the meantime, BJP taunted the Congress's internal strife,
[00:18:51] in which Congress needs introspection and contemplation,
[00:18:54] the verbal abuse that happened there today, I cannot describe
[00:18:58] that verbal abuse to you, but what happened
[00:19:01] with a female president and in front of senior leaders
[00:19:04] who are considered the most senior leaders of Uttar Pradesh,
[00:19:08] because of this, Congress should think
[00:19:11] about its party, its organization, it should introspect,
[00:19:15] this incident definitely creates concern for Congress
[00:19:18] in the election season in UP, the question is arising
[00:19:22] whether the central leadership of the party has no control
[00:19:25] over the factionalism in UP Congress, will the path of the new leadership
[00:19:29] of Congress in UP be difficult and the biggest question is
[00:19:33] that amidst such internal factionalism, how will Congress face the electoral
[00:19:36] challenges of 2027? In Delhi,
[00:19:54] traders are facing a big calamity amidst the festive season,
[00:19:58] it is being said that due to political protests and road
[00:20:01] blockades, Delhi's trade has suffered a loss of up
[00:20:05] to 70%, even though protests and demonstrations have been banned
[00:20:08] at Jantar Mantar, but the daily protests in Central Delhi
[00:20:11] have greatly increased the difficulties of traders.
[00:20:27] It's the festive season, markets are decorated,
[00:20:31] but the vibrancy is missing. This is the condition of those
[00:20:34] historic markets of Delhi which used to be bustling
[00:20:50] due to the ongoing protests, Delhi's trade has fallen by 70%.
[00:20:53] Seeing the situation, CTI directly wrote a letter
[00:20:57] to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and pleaded for a temporary
[00:21:00] ban on these protests in Delhi's commercial markets until Diwali.
[00:21:04] When the recognition of protests at Jantar Mantar
[00:21:08] was revoked, CTI welcomed it, but around
[00:21:11] Ramlila Maidan, Old Delhi, i.e., Delhi Six's largest
[00:21:15] wholesale markets are located, in such a situation,
[00:21:18] the Chamber of Trade and Industry's concern has increased.
[00:21:22] Jantar Mantar has been removed as a protest
[00:21:25] site and three places have been allotted: Ramlila Maidan, Burari
[00:21:29] Maidan and CBD Ground, but we have one objection
[00:21:33] that you have chosen Ramlila Maidan for
[00:21:36] the protest site, then we will have trouble because
[00:21:40] within a 5 kilometer area of it, you have Daryaganj
[00:21:44] Market, the area of Ajmeri Gate,
[00:21:47] Kamala Market, then Chawri Bazar, Khari.
[00:22:20] Let us tell you that 14 flaws have been found in Rahul Gandhi's
[00:22:23] petition in the Supreme Court, objections have been raised
[00:22:27] from court fees to documents, the vakalatnamas of nine petitioners
[00:22:31] are missing, the copy of Kharge's ID card is also
[00:22:35] unclear, the process will proceed further only after the defect
[00:22:39] is removed, let us tell you that Congress's legal team had filed
[00:22:42] the petition here, in which 11 people from many
[00:22:46] parties were petitioners, Rahul Gandhi is also a petitioner
[00:22:49] here, you can see Rahul Gandhi's name is here and
[00:22:52] now this information is coming that related to the petition,
[00:22:56] 14 flaws have been found in Rahul Gandhi's petition in the Supreme Court,
[00:23:00] in which there are many such flaws from court fees
[00:23:03] to documents that have come to light here, the vakalatnamas
[00:23:07] of nine petitioners were also found
[00:23:09] missing here.
[00:23:12] So earlier there was a discussion that perhaps
[00:23:16] this matter would be heard in the Supreme Court tomorrow, but before that, in the scrutiny
[00:23:20] of the petition, it was seen that there were 14 flaws
[00:23:23] in the petition, now these flaws will be rectified
[00:23:27] here, after that things can move forward here, Ashish,
[00:23:31] please tell us what kind of defects are there and does this also mean
[00:23:35] that at least there will be no hearing tomorrow, look,
[00:23:38] the hearing is still pending, we are
[00:23:42] also
[00:23:44] waiting.
[00:23:48] Ashish will give us more information, we will try to go back to him,
[00:23:52] so look, this big information is coming out
[00:23:55] right now, the petition that was given by Rahul Gandhi,
[00:24:16] News should not only be fast, but also
[00:24:18] accurate, that's why

[00:26:52] This is Shiva's dance. There is no climbing
[00:26:56] in it.
[00:27:34] The group of
[00:27:36] miscreants spreading chaos. The last hope to save democracy
[00:27:39] is now left with the Supreme Court. The people
[00:27:43] in the India bloc are all spent
[00:27:46] cartridges. The public has rejected them. They are all
[00:27:50] rejected people. They are going,
[00:27:53] it's their wish, but they are not doing it in the national interest. I think
[00:27:57] the Supreme Court should listen to us so that the right step can be taken.
