Black clothes or has been banned at Janata Bhawan in wake of people protesting opposing the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill wearing black.

The restriction was apparently meant to rule out any chance of a protest at the venue. Policemen were seen checking people for any piece of black cloth and anyone wearing a black shirt was not allowed.

Anybody coming to the Janata Bhawan with any black material will not be allowed to enter the Janata Bhawan.

Black flag protests continue in the state against the Citizenship Amendment Bill, 2016.
