Delhi protests a success, says Prashant Kishor citing 40,000 paramilitary deployment

Political strategist Prashant Kishor has argued that the deployment of 40,000 paramilitary personnel in Delhi is evidence of the success of recent protests in the capital.

Kishor's statement suggests that the extent of security mobilisation reflects the significance and reach of the demonstrations. He implied that such large-scale deployment by authorities would not be necessary if the protests lacked substantial public support or impact.

The remarks come amid ongoing political discourse around protest movements and government response in Delhi, with various leaders offering their interpretations of the demonstrations' effectiveness and public reception.
