Jammu and Kashmir Students Association plans to protest at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi, India from 10:00 Dec. 14. Increased security likely.

Warning

The Jammu and Kashmir Students Association (JKSA) plans to stage a protest at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi from 10:00 on Dec. 14 to demand a review and revision of the Jammu and Kashmir state's new reservation policy. Hundreds of activists could attend the gathering.

Increased security is likely. Organizers have indicated the action will be a peaceful sit-in; however, the protest action turning violent cannot be ruled out. Skirmishes between law enforcement and protesters are possible. Localized traffic disruptions are possible if the protest action moves to the local roads.

As a precaution, avoid the protest site. If skirmishes occur, leave the area for a secure non-governmental building. Plan for possible localized traffic disruptions. Follow all security and traffic advisories.
