CJP Founder Dipke Seeks Permission to Extend Protest at Jantar Mantar
The founder of the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), Dipke, arrived at the protest venue at Jantar Mantar in Delhi to a rousing reception from the gathered crowd. Addressing the supporters, he stated that their primary aim is to resolve the issues faced by students and demanded that Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan resign from his position.
Protest Demands and Student Issues
Dipke emphasized that the protest would continue until their demands are met, and he has sought official permission to extend the demonstration at Jantar Mantar. The crowd cheered as he spoke about the need for accountability and action regarding student welfare.
The protest, which began earlier this week, has drawn attention to various grievances, including education policy concerns and administrative failures. Dipke's call for Pradhan's resignation has become a central theme of the agitation.
Background of the Agitation
The Cockroach Janta Party, known for its activist stance, has been organizing protests across the capital. The Jantar Mantar site has historically been a venue for demonstrations, and this latest gathering underscores ongoing tensions between student groups and the government.
As of the latest update on 20 June 2026, the protest continues with participants vowing to remain until their demands are addressed. Authorities are yet to respond to the request for an extended protest period.
