Delhi Metro stations were thrown into chaos after a lathi charge during a protest outside Parliament. Commuters found the automatic gates of the AMC (Automated Metro Control) locked, prompting some to jump over the barriers to reach the platforms. The incident disrupted regular service and raised concerns over crowd control measures. Authorities have yet to release a detailed statement on the incident. The protest, which had been ongoing near the Parliament, reportedly escalated into a confrontation with security forces.
