Crowds were seen pouring out of Jantar Mantar from the Janpath end near Metro Gate No. 2, cheering, most of them unsure of where they’ll head next. Some said they’ll stay put until PM Narendra Modi resigned.

The other exit towards the Sansad Marg has been sealed off. With only the Janpath end open, the police have left a narrow space for the crowd to squeeze through.

However, CJP’s national spokesperson Ashutosh Ranka said the protesters would “go home” only if the government accepted their three demands in writing.

Addressing supporters at Jantar Mantar, Ranka said, “If you accept our three demands in writing, we will go home.” He also said the group had sought permission to organise a peaceful nationwide candle march and urged people across the country to participate at 6 pm.
