The Guardian reports on the fierce defiance of the Cockroach Party protesters as they clash with police en route to Parliament.

The Guardian highlights the sheer grit of the Indian youth today. Despite Section 144 being imposed and heavy police barricades erected, supporters of the Cockroach Janta Party are defying all orders to march on Parliament.

Tensions have been running high since the forced hospitalization of activist Sonam Wangchuk, and today's march is seen as a direct retaliation by the students who feel their futures have been jeopardized by state incompetence.
