<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nNEW DELHI: Minutes before the march was set to begin, police loudspeakers at India Gate were already telling people to leave. Buses stood ready to carry away detainees, and a heavy deployment guarded the proposed starting point.Within the next few hours, the gathering shifted to Ashoka Road, where hundreds of protesters pushed barricades into the path of a riot-control vehicle, climbed barriers and vehicles, and confronted police trying to block them from Jantar Mantar. Sunday, the third consecutive day of protests against chief election commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, saw nearly 120 detentions.At 2.50 pm, police were in force at India Gate. They asked media personnel to keep their identity cards visible. The announcements came a day after three women covering the protests alleged sexual harassment by police personnel.A little after 3 pm, members of AAP and its student wing, ASAP, arrived with other protesters. As they attempted to march, police detained them and took them towards some waiting buses. Some resisted boarding. Others climbed onto a bus and continued chanting. Some protesters broke the rear window of a bus to escape, while some jumped from the moving buses. During the mobilisation, a bus was blocked and detainees freed.For students waiting at India Gate for the march called by All India Students\u2019 Association (AISA) and other Left groups, uncertainty suddenly gave way to a rush towards Ashoka Road.Word spread that the gathering point had shifted to the Andhra Bhawan Circle, and protesters were seen rushing there. Soon, hundreds had assembled. The march stalled at India Gate had found a new gathering point and a fresh line of police to confront.As police arrived in large numbers and a riot-control vehicle approached, the protesters pushed barricades into its path, blocking its movement. Some clambered onto the barriers and continued shouting slogans as police tried to contain the crowd. The barricades became the centre of a face-off.Around 5 pm, the confrontation shifted to a vehicle near Shangri-La hotel, where AISA president Neha Bora was taken, according to a complaint the organisation sent the Delhi Police<\/a> commissioner. Women protesters tried to climb onto the vehicle, while women police personnel struggled to pull them away. Bora reportedly also scaled a barricade. Protesters later marched towards the Windsor Place roundabout too. Traffic was severely affected around the area.Apart from the common cause of demanding Kumar\u2019s resignation, for some in the crowd, anger over police\u2019s way of handling of the protests was another reason to turn up. \u201cEven if prohibitory orders have been imposed, we want to march,\u201d said Mannat, an artist. \u201cWhen police themselves are attacking women, don\u2019t the rules apply to them?\u201dWomen from various colleges said they had joined the marches demanding safer public spaces. Their concerns about women\u2019s safety now extended to the treatment of protesters and journalists. Suhana, a participant, said she had returned because of what she described as police brutality Saturday. She alleged that she had been detained at 1.30 pm. \u201cI was touched inappropriately by police personnel. Police acknowledged my written complaint with a stamp, but neither registered an FIR, nor arranged for a medical examination,\u201d she said.In its complaint, AISA alleged that male police personnel without badges had taken Bora away in a vehicle. No woman police officer was there. The organisation described this as an \u201cabduction\u201d. An AISA member later said Bora was released in the Narela industrial area police station but did not have her phone or bag.Police had said permission had not been granted for the marches.Later in the day, Indian Youth Congress workers marched from Raisina Road towards Jantar Mantar. They demanded Kumar\u2019s resignation and accused Centre of protecting him.<\/div>\n Some clambered onto the barriers and continued shouting slogans as police tried to contain the crowd.
