Delayed Police Response Blamed for Security Breach at Parliament March

Delhi Police came under scrutiny for their handling of the 'Sandad Chalo' protest march led by CJP, which resulted in demonstrators breaching security barriers near Parliament. Intelligence agencies had reportedly issued advance warnings about the expected scale of the crowd gathering. On-ground officers cited an absence of clear directives during the critical first hour of the demonstration. The lack of timely action allowed protesters to cross key security perimeters and approach Parliament. Officials noted that comparable administrative delays had previously occurred during protests at Red Fort and India Gate.
