Youth Congress members today staged a protest near the residence of Social Justice Minister Arun Chaturvedi and sought his resignation over the recent deaths of 11 children with special needs.
Police used water cannon to prevent the agitators and arrested 52 members for "protesting without permission".
They were later released, police said.
The members of the Youth Congress demanded resignation of the Minister over the deaths of the 11 inmates of a government-run home, Youth Congress leader Ashok Chandna said.
Eleven children with special needs, who were staying at the government-run home in Jamdoli near Jaipur died last month in SMS hospital and JK Lone hospital where they were admitted with septic shock after allegedly drinking contaminated water.
