Free clinics support protesters at Jantar Mantar as NHRC complaint alleges police action

At Jantar Mantar in Delhi, a group of doctors has set up free clinics to provide medical aid to protesters. The clinics offer basic medicines such as paracetamol and painkillers, along with supplies like Dettol and sanitary pads. Equipment including a blood pressure monitor, an oximeter, and thermometers is also available. The medicines and equipment were donated by the public, and about 10 to 12 doctors are volunteering at the clinics.

Separately, a complaint has been filed with the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) over alleged police brutality against the protesters at the same location. The complaint accuses the police of using excessive force.

The protests at Jantar Mantar have been ongoing, and the free clinics aim to address the health needs of those participating. The doctors are providing care voluntarily, relying on donations to support their efforts. The NHRC will review the complaint and decide on further action.
