A video claiming to show a large crowd gathered outside Jantar Mantar at 7 am ahead of the Cockroach Janta Party’s (CJP) planned protest against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar has been flagged as old footage by Delhi Police. The police said the video was recorded during the party’s earlier demonstration on July 20 and accused the social media user who shared it of spreading misleading information about the crowd expected at Saturday’s protest.
An X user posted the video with the caption, “It's 7 in the morning. The party has just begun.” Delhi Police responded to the post with a warning, writing, “Old video alert!” The user subsequently deleted the post.
