Security arrangements have been significantly strengthened across the New Delhi district ahead of the Monsoon Session of Parliament, scheduled to begin on July 20, and the proposed “Chalo Sansad” march. According to police sources, the Delhi Police has deployed additional personnel, reinforced barricading, intensified surveillance, and increased vehicle checks at key entry points to keep law and order during the parliamentary session.
Officials said the preventive security deployment will remain in place throughout the Monsoon Session, which is scheduled to continue until August 13.
Enhanced Security Measures
Several entry points into the New Delhi district have been designated as high‑security zones with multi‑layered security arrangements. These measures include:
- Multi‑layered barricading at strategic locations
- Intensive vehicle checking at entry points
- Enhanced CCTV surveillance
- Anti‑sabotage inspections
- Round‑the‑clock patrolling
- Additional police pickets
- Reserve security forces on standby
- Deployment of rapid response teams
According to a senior police source, every vehicle entering the New Delhi district is undergoing thorough security screening as part of the preventive arrangements.
The official said additional security personnel have been deployed at key locations while surveillance has been increased in areas considered sensitive during the parliamentary session.
High‑Security Locations
Security has been reinforced around several important locations in the national capital, including:
- Parliament Street
- Central Vista
- Jantar Mantar
- Connaught Place
- Shankar Chowk

Authorities have also intensified monitoring across parts of Central Delhi and North Delhi to ensure public safety during the session.
Protest and Hunger Strike
The heightened security comes amid developments related to the proposed “Chalo Sansad” march organised by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP).
According to reports, CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke continued his indefinite hunger strike after activist Sonam Wangchuk was taken to Safdarjung Hospital on July 18.
From the hospital, Wangchuk reportedly appealed to supporters to participate in the planned march to Parliament on July 20.
Focus on Law and Order
Police officials have stated that the enhanced deployment is aimed at ensuring security during the parliamentary session and facilitating effective law enforcement in the national capital.
