The Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) protest at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi continued for the fourth consecutive day on Tuesday. During the demonstration, party leaders raised their voice on issues related to students, targeting the Central Government and the Education Ministry.
Expressed displeasure on the statement of Education Minister
Addressing the protest site, Deepke responded to Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan’s statement in which CJP had reportedly been described as the “B team of terrorists”. Deepke said that the party is demanding justice for the students who have committed suicide, but despite this they are being linked to terrorists. He said, “Just think what the Education Minister said. When we are demanding justice for the students, then we are being called the B team of terrorists.”
‘We do not need a certificate of patriotism’
During the demonstration, Abhijeet also criticized the statement of the Education Minister. He said that it is unfortunate to call the youth of the country terrorists. Abhijeet said, “Sir, we are not terrorists. We do not need a certificate of patriotism from people like you.”
Targeted on social media also
After the protest, Deepke also attacked the Education Minister on social media platform X. He wrote in his post that Dharmendra Pradhan is calling him a terrorist, whereas the government should answer regarding matters related to students. In the post he also made serious allegations regarding the policies of the government and the deaths of students.
Demonstration continues regarding student issues
CJP says that his movement is about the interests of students and issues related to the education system. Party leaders claim that they are protesting peacefully to demand students’ rights and justice.
political rhetoric intensified
The political atmosphere has also become heated regarding this issue. On one hand, the opposition parties are accusing the government of ignoring the students’ issues, while the ruling party is calling the opposition’s allegations politically motivated. In such a situation, this ongoing protest at Jantar Mantar may gain more political importance in the coming days.
