Actor Amol Parashar said he joined the Cockroach Janta Party protest in Delhi and witnessed young demonstrators bleeding during the clashes, describing the experience as deeply distressing.
Parashar said he cried himself to sleep after witnessing the scenes of violence involving young protesters at the demonstration, sharing his account publicly in the aftermath. The actor’s remarks add a prominent entertainment-industry voice to the wider public reaction over the police response to the CJP-linked protests.
His comments come amid continued scrutiny of law enforcement’s handling of the demonstrations, which have drawn participation from students, artists and political figures across the country.
Parashar joins a small but growing number of entertainment figures who have spoken publicly about their involvement in the protest movement, adding visibility to the demonstrations beyond student and political circles.
