A group of 20 individuals, identified as members of the National Students' Union of India (NSUI), were booked for allegedly protesting and attempting to enter the residence of Union Minister of Education Dharmendra Pradhan. The incident occurred at House number 19, Kushak Road in South Avenue, officials announced on Saturday.

According to police records, the protest took place despite the enforcement of Section 144 of CrPC in the area, which prohibits gatherings.
