Amid a police crackdown on anti-CEC protests, Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta said on Saturday (October 10, 2026) that the national capital will not be held hostage and accused Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal of trying to turn the city into a "battleground" with their "B-Team", the CJP.

Authorities detained over 7,000 people, including top Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) leaders, Mr. Kejriwal, leaders from Left parties and Trinamool Congress, activists and students, while foiling a planned CJP protest at Jantar Mantar demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar.

The CJP accused Mr. Kumar of masterminding voter-list manipulation during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the electoral roll, as well as other irregularities related to Form 6, used for voter registration. CJP convener Abhijeet Dipke, Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka were detained at Delhi airport on their arrival from Mumbai.

Ms. Gupta, in a post on X, alleged that Mr. Gandhi and Mr. Kejriwal, rejected by the people, sought to turn Delhi into a battleground in collusion with their "B-Team".

"Why are these leaders so hell-bent on venting frustration over their nonstop defeats on the public? What offence have residents of Delhi committed to be tormented by the chaos on the streets?" Ms. Gupta wrote.
