One can spot the site of the protest near the Inderlok Metro station from the foot overbridge. It is festooned with the Tricolour. The protest is organised on the frontage road so as not to inconvenience traffic — a sign that while it has drawn inspiration from Shaheen Bagh, it has also learnt from it. Some 200 women are seated in a barricaded area, shouting slogans and listening to speeches. They are guarded by their own and also by masked police personnel stationed by the yellow barricades, now a familiar sight in the city.
