Activists of Youth Congress and National Students Union of India (NSUI) were baton charged by Delhi Police and some of them were detained as they tried to undertake a protest march towards the official residence of the BJP president.
The protesters claimed that there is corruption within BJP itself and the party should come clean on these charges before accusing others.
Heavy Police deployment was put in place and barricades were set up to stop the protesters.
Led by BJYM national president Anurag Thakur, the demonstrators had also demanded Singh's resignation.
