Actor Imran Khan detained in Mumbai while questioning curbs on movement

Imran Khan, a well-known actor, was detained by Mumbai police and posted a selfie from a police van, humorously noting he was "going for a drive." He explained to the media that he was not pursuing any particular agenda, but was acting as a Mumbai resident concerned about the curtailment of free movement and the silencing of public voices. In a separate development, Delhi police said roughly 1,000 protesters have been arrested while attempting to march to Jantar Mantar.

The demonstrators, organized by the Cockroach Janta Party, are demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. Both incidents highlight heightened tensions over civil liberties and protest rights in India.
