Journalists from different media organisations on Wednesday protested against the Delhi Police crackdown on NewsClick and arrest of its founder Prabir Purkayastha and HR head Amit Chakravarty
A peaceful protest was organised in front of the Press Club of India (PCI), where journalists were seen holding banners
The protesting journalists said they are getting support from different media organisations and press clubs across the country
Journalist Paranjoy Guha Thakurta, who was questioned by police on Tuesday, shared his experience about the questioning and behaviour of the police
"The entire staff of Delhi's Special Cell asked me a set of many questions. However, their behaviour was very decent. They asked me for tea and ordered lunch for me as well. As two -- Prabir Purkayastha and Amit Chakravarty -- have been arrested, I feel the police also behave in a decent way with them," Thakurta said
