A total of 92 members, including Yadav, of the Swaraj Abhiyan were arrested around 1 a.m. on Tuesday from Jantar Mantar, where they held a protest, demanding adequate compensation for farmers affected by the land bill as well as those hit by crop loss.
Yadav and others were at the Parliament Street police sation.
"We have been holding a protest outside the police station since 2 a.m. after Yogendra Yadav was arrested," Yadav's aide Anil Kumar Maurya told IANS.
