A Delhi court granted Abhijeet Dipke — founder of the Cockroach Janta Party — a conditional release on Saturday, one day after his detention while he was reportedly travelling toward Connaught Place to join a march tied to his allegations of electoral fraud. A requirement to sign a bond pledging that he would keep the peace was placed before Dipke.

Dipke had been brought before a Special Executive Magistrate following his placement under preventive detention in the run-up to the planned 'Lehra Do Tiranga' march. Authorities took him into custody on a breach-of-peace matter, with the detention formalised under Sections 126 and 170 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita.

Organisers had set Friday evening aside for the gathering, with those taking part intending to display the Tricolour at Connaught Place. Smaller flag-waving processions went ahead across the neighbourhood after the originally planned central march was called off.

Neha Bora, who leads the All India Students' Association, was among those taken into custody that Friday. Paperwork tied to her detention under the Delhi Police Act was concluded by Saturday morning, at which point she was released.

Roughly 150 individuals were taken into custody on Friday, with authorities citing the need to preserve public order and keep traffic flowing without disruption. Barriers went up around Central Park in Connaught Place as authorities increased the security presence across the area. Units from the Rapid Action Force took up positions inside the park, with additional officers forming a cordon across the surrounding streets and open ground.

On 10 October, Dipke was taken into custody while still aboard an aircraft at Delhi airport. At the same time, a breach-of-peace matter was opened against him, with a twelve-month bond placed on him obligating no disruption to public order.

Upon her release, Bora spoke publicly against both Delhi Police and the central administration led by the BJP, describing the arrests as lacking any lawful justification. Her demands included an end to the Special Intensive Revision of voter rolls, along with the removal from office and arrest of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar.

Bora described being detained at Mandi House and held at a police station until 5 am, adding that the officers' behaviour fell short of the legal obligations those same authorities are bound to follow. Among those whose release she pressed for without delay was Dipke, alongside every other protester who had been taken into custody or faced arrest.

The organisation stated that rulings handed down by the Supreme Court had already provided backing for the positions it had taken. The BJP described those protests — drawing in Opposition parties, the CJP, and student groups — as foreign-funded efforts aimed at undermining public order.
