Among those named are BJP state president Babulal Marandi, former Union minister Arjun Munda, and MoS Defense Sanjay Seth, according to police.

The rally, dubbed the 'Yuva Aakrosh Rally,' was organized by the Bharatiya Janata Party's Jharkhand unit to protest against Chief Minister Hemant Soren's government. The event saw participation from prominent BJP leaders including Babulal Marandi, Arjun Munda, and Sanjay Seth.
