Police on Saturday stopped a march led by Yeti Narsinghanand and his supporters, who were heading to Jantar Mantar in Delhi to protest against the proposed UGC bill aimed at promoting equality in higher education institutions.
Narsinghanand alleged that despite having permission from the Delhi Police, the group was forcibly stopped by the Ghaziabad Police during the march.

According to him, the yatra began from the Dasna Devi Temple and was proceeding along its scheduled route when a heavy police deployment intercepted the procession at Morta and prevented it from moving further.
Following the intervention, several saints and activists participating in the march were reportedly placed under house arrest.
