Even during the meetings, the Delhi Police had repeatedly warned them of the DDMA rules prohibiting protests. But on Wednesday, Delhi Chief Secretary informed the Delhi Police that L-G Anil Baijal as the de-facto Chairperson of the DDMA had approved the relaxation in rules to allow the protest. "They have been permitted to protest at Jantar Mantar with limited numbers not exceeding 200 persons for SKM and six persons for KMSC from 1100 hrs up to 1700 hrs daily," police said in their statement.
