Jitendra Yadav lives in Patel Nagar City Center, Gwalior.

Before they could respond, some men entered without opening the gate. Some were in uniform and others in plain clothes. They asked about Jitendra, forcibly went upstairs, brought him down slapping him, and claimed to be from University Police Station and the Crime Branch. They took him away in a Scorpio with “CSP” written on it and a Delhi registration number. When the family reached the police station with local leaders, they were not allowed to meet him and could only speak on the phone. They were told that Delhi Police had detained Jitendra in connection with the protest. Keshav Yadav said, On Sunday morning, some police personnel came again. When asked, they said that your son had created a ruckus in Delhi. We told them that Jitendra had already been taken by the police at night. After that, they took all the mobile phones from our house and left.After some time, the same people came back and returned our phones. They asked for Jitendra’s clothes. Then they left. So far, there is no information about where our son is? Congress state spokesperson RP Singh said, No official information has been given in the matter yet. Police raided the house of Youth Congress leader Jitendra Yadav, rather I would say that they entered the house unauthorizedly. Family members were harassed. Even their mobiles were confiscated. It doesn’t seem like there is any legal system in Madhya Pradesh. There is an atmosphere of complete anarchy. Since morning, all people including the City Congress District President, Rural District President are making rounds of police stations, SP office, Crime Branch and other places. No information is being received from anywhere.
