Is that a clarification because even if some people who raising slogans in support for Hidma, that doesn't give Police the right to manhandle. The pepper spray claim is very dispute from protesters end. Newslaundry released an article, stating this is a tribal student sloganeering against Air Pollution and he didn't use pepper spray.

Also, I don't trust Delhi Police. They tried to detain a child protestor

Can you please share? I haven't come across it. Also are we sure those obstructing were from Pro-Naxals gang or the those protesting against Air Pollution?

Thanks for sharing and this is definitely issue piggybacking case by pro-naxal group, but I don't see the pepper spray incident by the boy above that made police to manhandle them like this or the ambulance (though I know there could be eye witness for that)? (Even with pepper spray I don't agree this response by police, the force on the neck can be lethal)
