Cockroach Janta Party Founder Urges Supporters Not to Gather at Delhi Airport
Cockroach Janta Party Founder Asks Supporters to Avoid Airport

NEW DELHI: Abhijeet Dipke, the founder of the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), on Thursday appealed to his supporters to refrain from gathering at the Delhi airport when he arrives in India on June 6. He stated that the overwhelming response to his campaign had exceeded all expectations, and a large crowd could cause inconvenience to the public and security personnel. Upon arrival, Dipke said he will travel directly to the Parliament Street Police Station to seek permission for a demonstration at Jantar Mantar.

Appeal to Supporters

In a video message posted on X, Dipke said, "The overwhelming response from those who want the resignation of Dharmendra Pradhan to our call to join us at Delhi Airport was beyond our imagination. It is not feasible for so many people to assemble at the airport as it would cause inconvenience to the public and the security forces. So please do not come to Delhi airport." He added, "Instead, I will be going to the Parliament Street Police station to seek permission directly for our peaceful protest at Jantar Mantar. We are law abiding citizens and have to act responsibly. So please be mindful that nobody should create any kind of disturbance."

Protest Campaign for Pradhan's Resignation

Earlier this week, Dipke announced his return to India on June 6 to launch a protest campaign demanding the resignation of Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan over what he described as repeated failures in the country's examination system. In a separate video posted on social media, he urged students and supporters to join the movement, linking his demand to controversies surrounding major examinations, including NEET, CBSE, CUET, and SSCGD.
