Students returned to Jantar Mantar with injuries from Monday’s police lathicharge. Some protesters alleged police used lathis fitted with nails and screws. Women police personnel were also accused of slapping female students during the incident. A stampede-like situation occurred near Janpath metro station as protesters fled. Despite injuries, students returned to the protest, stating the cause was larger than any organization.
