Mentally unstable woman creates ruckus at India Gate

Security personnel on the duty at the India Gate stopped the woman from entering the Amar Jawan Jyoti. She also pushed the soldiers who were on duty and created chaos. Finally, woman constables took her to Parliament Street police station, a senior police officer said.
