On May 15, 2025, several individuals were detained by Delhi Police during a protest near the Turkish Embassy in New Delhi. The demonstrators were expressing dissent against recent remarks made by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan concerning the Kashmir issue. The protestors, comprising members of various student and activist groups, attempted to march towards the embassy without obtaining prior permission, leading to their detention. Authorities had imposed Section 144 of the CrPC in the area to prevent unlawful assembly. The detained individuals were taken to nearby police stations and later released. The incident underscores ongoing tensions and the sensitivity surrounding international comments on India's internal matters. (PC: Zee News, Hindustan Times & The Tribune)
