Trinamool Congress leaders Mahua Moitra and Kirti Azad have joined the satirical 'Cockroach Janta Party' (CJP) following Chief Justice Surya Kant's remarks that likened unemployed youth to 'cockroaches.' During a court hearing, Kant criticized individuals entering professions with fake credentials, which he later clarified was not directed at the youth. The CJP, which describes itself as a political front 'for the youth, by the youth,' rapidly gained popularity, amassing over 40,000 followers within days of its launch. The party's membership criteria are intentionally humorous, welcoming the unemployed and those who are 'chronically online.'
