The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), a satirical political movement initiated by Indian student Abhijeet Dipke, has gained significant traction as a response to rising youth unemployment and economic discontent in India. The movement emerged following controversial remarks by Chief Justice Surya Kant, who likened unemployed youth to cockroaches. With urban youth unemployment at 14% and nearly 40% among graduates under 25, the movement resonates with a demographic that feels neglected by Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government. As the CJP gained popularity, it faced backlash, including threats against Dipke and his family. The ongoing Iran war has further strained India's economy, impacting fuel imports and exacerbating existing economic woes. Amidst this backdrop, the CJP has become a symbol of youth discontent, with protests featuring cockroach mascots and a growing online presence. Analysts warn that the Modi administration's failure to address these issues could lead to significant political repercussions, similar to movements seen in neighboring countries. Dipke remains committed to the movement, emphasizing the need for political engagement with India's youth.
