Plea accuses Union home secretary shutting 45 Delhi Metro stations
India
The contempt plea has called out the Union Home Secretary for authorities shutting down 45 Delhi Metro stations during the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) protest, even though the court had just said essential transport shouldn't be totally blocked.
The move caused public hardship and sparked a contempt plea, with concerns raised about restrictions on metro and train movement.
