‘Rules should be followed’: Congress on Delhi-Shimla Police showdown over IYC workers' arrest

The Indian National Congress (INC) has emphasized the importance of adhering to established regulations following a recent confrontation between Delhi and Shimla police over the arrest of Indian Youth Congress (IYC) workers. This incident highlights ongoing tensions surrounding political protests, particularly those organized by youth factions. The Congress party has called for a transparent and lawful approach to handling such demonstrations, asserting that procedural guidelines must be respected to maintain order and justice. The arrest of the IYC members has sparked public discussions about the treatment of political activists and the role of law enforcement in managing political dissent. As political climates shift and protests become more frequent, the Congress party’s stance reflects a broader concern regarding civil liberties and democratic processes in India. The party is urging authorities to ensure that law enforcement actions do not infringe on the rights of citizens to peacefully assemble and express their views, underlining the necessity for dialogue and understanding between political entities and law enforcement agencies.
