In New Delhi, India's capital, a group of demonstrators gathered at a gurdwara, a Sikh house of worship, before attempting to reach a protest site that authorities had locked down. The source describes the effort to get there as a long shot.

Because the site was closed off, the protesters had to try to get through to it and faced police along the way. The New York Times describes the group moving from the Sikh sanctuary onto chaotic city streets, undeterred by the police presence.

The available source excerpt does not say what the protest was about, how many people took part, or how the attempt to reach the site ended. Those details have not been confirmed.
