New Delhi, Jan 31 (PTI) Several people, who had gathered at a municipal park in Malviya Nagar to oppose the CAA, have been booked for allegedly obstructing police from doing their duty, officials said on Friday.

The people had gathered at the park on Wednesday for the protest and erected a tent there, they said.

There were several women protesters who also misbehaved with an on-duty policeman, a senior police officer said.
