Scores of activists of the Delhi Pradesh Youth Congress (DPYC) staged a protest near Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman's residence here on Thursday over the theft of files related to the Rafale fighter jet deal from the ministry.
The protesters gathered near Sitharaman's residence at Safdarjung Road, raised slogans against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and demanded his resignation.
Police stopped the protesters from marching and detained them when they tried to cross a barricade.
Taking a dig at Modi, DPYC President Vikas Chikara said, "The chowkidar has failed to serve country as he cannot protect such important and security files."
