The main places of protest include Arya Samaj Chowk, Azmal Khan Road, Filmistan, Dr Mujje Chowk, Paharganj PS, Sarojikni Nagar Market, Khan Market, Bengali Market, Connaught Place, Arobindo Marg, Green Park, Jahangirpuri, Madhuban Chowk, Bawana Chowk, Narela Ramdev Chowk, Begumpur Main Road, Moti Nagar Chowk, Jakhira Mandi, Patel Nagar PS, West Patel Nagar Chowk, Narayana PVR Chowk, Inderpuri, Gopinath Bazar, Hanuman Mandir Chowk, Shahdara, GTB Enclave Chowk, Gokulpur Chowk, Brijpuri Chowk, Shiv Vihar Chowk.
The BJP workers will burn the effigies of Prime Minister and Congress leaders.
