Delhi Police had denied permission for the march and stopped a section of the crowd at Delhi Gate.
Thousands of students, activists and opposition leaders had hit the streets in the national capital, defying heavy security clampdown and prohibitory orders even as authorities suspended mobile internet services and restricted traffic movement to quell the swirling agitation.
Heavy security was deployed in areas around the Jama Masjid in view of the protest call and all the exit and entry lanes were barricaded.
