The founder of the viral online campaign Cockroach Janta Party has announced plans to launch a petition demanding the resignation of Dharmendra Pradhan, accusing the education system of failing millions of students. Abhijeet Dipke, who launched the satirical digital movement popularly known as CJP, made the appeal in a new Instagram video that quickly gained traction online. Soon after, the campaign launched another X account titled Cockroach is Back, which reportedly gained around 144,000 followers within 24 hours.
Congress MP Shashi Tharoor on Friday doubled down on his remarks backing the viral satirical outfit Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), saying suppressing such movements in a democracy would be “foolish” and warning that ignoring youth frustration could prove “disastrous”. ‘I prefer satire to chaos’ Using a pressure cooker analogy, Tharoor said such movements function as democratic safety valves. Within days of its launch, the group amassed millions of followers on social media and even drew engagement from politicians across party lines, including Trinamool Congress MPs Mahua Moitra and Kirti Azad.
