Assessments & Forecast:

  1. Turnout at the slated protests is likely to range between low-to-mid dozens, given the relevance of the respective issues, coupled with the mobilizing capabilities of the organizing groups. The turnout in the protest in Trilokpuri is liable to increase if other like-minded civil society groups decide to join the protest. As part of the standard security protocol, the authorities are likely to bolster security measures in the vicinity of the aforementioned locations with the deployment of police personnel and the placement of barricades to monitor the proceedings.
  2. There remains a latent risk of scuffles between protesters and the police in LSP protest, particularly due to the anti‑government nature of the protest. Should the former engage in disruptive activities such as blocking major thoroughfares, sloganeering, or acts of vandalism. In such cases, the authorities are likely to employ forcible dispersal measures such as temporary detention and baton charges to quell the unrest. Localized disruptions to travel are anticipated in the vicinity of the aforementioned locations and along the march routes during the protest hours on March 15.

Recommendations:

Those operating or residing in Delhi on March 15 are advised to maintain vigilance in the vicinity of the aforementioned locations and along the march route due to the slated protests and associated risk of unrest, while allotting for travel disruptions.
