A Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) delegation, led by party MP Tejasvi Surya, was briefly taken into police custody in Rajasthan on Wednesday, 13 April, after the group protested against Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on being stopped from visiting the violence-hit Karauli district.

Surya, who was accompanied by BJP Rajasthan President Satish Poonia and several supporters while travelling to Karauli, was stopped by the Rajasthan Police at the Dausa border. After clashes between the police and the BJP workers staging protests at the border, Surya, Poonia, and others were briefly taken into custody by the police and then dispersed.
