Post descriptionFresh clashes reportedly broke out late Tuesday night near Jantar Mantar as Rapid Action Force (RAF) personnel and protesters confronted each other amid the ongoing CJP-led agitation. Videos circulating online appear to show chaotic scenes, including some individuals carrying traditional swords, though the full circumstances of those incidents remain under investigation. Following Monday's violence, Delhi Police have registered multiple FIRs, intensified security across central Delhi, and are examining CCTV, drone footage, and mobile videos to identify those involved. Meanwhile, the protest continues, with demonstrators reiterating their demands despite the heightened crackdown.

Visual inspectionThe video shows a chaotic scene at night with a large crowd of people. Some individuals are seen holding what appear to be swords or similar long objects. There are also individuals in uniform, presumably RAF personnel, interacting with the crowd. The scene appears to be a street or public area, possibly during a protest or confrontation. The lighting is dim, suggesting it is nighttime.

Overall field finding

The reel contains mostly accurate information about clashes near Jantar Mantar and police responses, but presents misleading details about timing and specific claims regarding sword attacks on RAF personnel at midnight.

Multiple news sources confirm fresh clashes occurred near Jantar Mantar on Wednesday night involving protesters and security personnel, with Delhi Police registering 10 FIRs. However, the claim of RAF being attacked with swords at midnight at CP lacks direct confirmation - while sources mention RAF personnel being assaulted and swords being present in the broader protest context, they don't explicitly link these elements to a midnight attack. The timing is also inconsistent (Tuesday vs Wednesday night). The Dipke quote lacks verification.

Delhi Police have registered multiple FIRs following the violence, with reports indicating 10 FIRs were filed.

Gaps and cautions

The exact timing of the clashes, specifically if they occurred late Tuesday night or on Wednesday night, requires clarification.
While reports mention an assault on RAF personnel and one source mentions 'attacked with swords', the consistent use of swords by protesters against RAF personnel, especially at midnight in CP, is not definitively confirmed across all sources. The visual evidence in the reel itself needs to be analyzed for clarity on the objects and the timing.
