<p>A protest leader explains why they refused an invitation to meet JP Nadda at his residence, insisting that any dialogue must take place at Jantar Mantar, in public. The speaker states that police reached out in the morning conveying that JP Nadda wanted to talk, but the protesters declined, saying ministers should come to the people, not the other way around. They suggest a neutral location near Jantar Mantar as a possible compromise. The leader emphasizes that any meeting must be purposeful, with the government showing genuine intent to accept their demands. They highlight the scale of the protest, noting thousands of people are still gathered and that lakhs had attended on the 20th, with an estimated 40,000-50,000 people across New Delhi district. The speaker insists the government must clarify its intentions before any talks proceed.</p>
