CJP Protest at Jantar Manta
New Delhi: A demonstration organised by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) was held at Jantar Mantar in Delhi, where founder Abhijeet Dipke addressed supporters and defended the role of public protests in democratic expression. The gathering included students and young participants who raised slogans throughout the event.
Dipke said the movement represents the concerns and rights of students and young people, particularly on issues they believe require greater attention from authorities. He emphasised that the protest was not symbolic alone but a way to ensure that voices from the ground are heard.
Addressing the crowd, Dipke questioned criticism directed at protests, sit-ins, and rallies. He said such movements are often dismissed, but they serve an important purpose in highlighting public sentiment.
He stated that participation in demonstrations proves that people remain engaged and aware of their rights. According to him, these activities are a reminder that citizens continue to express themselves despite challenges.
In a striking remark, Dipke said that while some may view protestors in a dismissive manner, they remain active and willing to fight for their rights. He added that public movements demonstrate resilience and determination among young citizens.
His comments were met with support from the gathering, which continued to raise slogans backing the movement’s demands.
The protest at Jantar Mantar continued under police monitoring, with security personnel deployed to maintain order. Authorities ensured that the demonstration remained peaceful and did not disrupt public movement in surrounding areas.
The event highlighted continued mobilisation by the group, with organisers indicating that their campaign would continue in the coming days.
