A man and a woman who were using colored smoke to protest in front of Transport Bhawan have been taken into custody by the police. The event happened outside of the Parliament.
Less than 60 minutes after images and claims surfaced of a significant security breach in the Lok Sabha, the Delhi Police said that they had also arrested demonstrators outside Transport Bhavan. The police in Delhi were notified that these demonstrators were emitting colored smoke.
The security lapse, which coincides with the 22nd anniversary of the terrorist attack on the former Parliament building, is already raising serious concerns.
Two demonstrators, a man and a woman, were arrested in front of Transport Bhawan, according to Delhi Police, for using colored smoke to express their disapproval. The event happened away from the Parliament building.
Police added that more investigation is being conducted and that the two people being held for the protest outside the Parliament are Neelam (42) and Amol Shinde (25).
In the wake of the tragedy, the area’s security has been strengthened.
People with knowledge of the Delhi Police development claim that antecedents are being checked.
The first questions about the security breach and who provided access are among them. Another is determining whether there is any connection to the people who leaped inside the Lok Sabha.
The inmates will probably be questioned by several authorities, according to the Delhi Police.
In a significant security lapse on the anniversary of the 2001 Parliament attack, two individuals sprang from the public gallery into the Lok Sabha chamber on Wednesday. They then proceeded to ignite canisters that released a yellow colored smoke, which caused the MPs to get alarmed.
After the incident, the House was adjourned shortly after.
The incident happened during Parliament’s Zero Hour. Around 1:00 pm, during Zero Hour, the two trespassers leaped from the fourth floor of the public gallery. Additionally, they yelled phrases like “dictatorship will not be allowed,” or “tanashahi nahi chalegi.”
On this day in 2001, nine people were killed in an attack on the Parliament complex by terrorists from the Pakistan-based groups Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Taiba.
