Rahul Gandhi, Congress leaders released after police detention

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and several party MPs were detained by police during a protest that saw supporters breach police barricades. Among those held were 10 MPs from the party. Gandhi and other leaders were later removed from a sit-in at Akashvani Bhawan. All detainees were subsequently released by authorities.

The detention followed a breach of police security cordons as Congress activists gathered to press their demands. The exact nature of the party's protest demands was not immediately specified in the detention incident.
