What was the scene at Jantar Mantar?

By Monday morning, hundreds of CJP supporters filled Jantar Mantar. They brought banners, shouted slogans, and prepared to head toward Parliament.

It is to prevent the crowd from marching outward, police personnel and rapid response teams have thrown a multi-layered security cord around the perimeter and restricted traffic movement on adjacent routes.

What legal restrictions were put in place?
