The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), which began as a satirical movement on social media, is now a serious political force advocating against systemic corruption in India's education system. The CJP recently held its inaugural press conference at Delhi's Constitution Club, where they called for the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan. The party is gearing up for a significant protest at Jantar Mantar, led by founder Abhijeet Dipke, who is returning from the US for this event. The CJP has appointed three prominent spokespersons to enhance its outreach: Sourav Das, a journalist and RTI activist known for his environmental advocacy; Vijeta Dahiya, a former scriptwriter for independent YouTuber Dhruv Rathee with a background in engineering and mass communication; and Ashutosh Ranka, a policy expert with a degree from the London School of Economics. Together, they aim to push for transparency and accountability in India's education sector, particularly in light of recent exam paper leaks.
