Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke has demanded the resignation of Union Home Minister Amit Shah, holding him responsible for the alleged firing on students during the recent protest. Speaking to the media in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Dipke accused the Centre of failing on multiple fronts, including law and order, student welfare and policing, while also rejecting allegations about his party receiving foreign funding.
Targets Amit Shah, BJP
Dipke questioned allegations that the Cockroach Janata Party was receiving funding from abroad, saying that if such funding had indeed taken place, it reflected a failure of the Union Home Minister.
"If funding is coming from outside while Amit Shah is the Home Minister, then it is his failure. What kind of Chanakya are you if a party is being run from outside under your watch? You should also resign," Dipke said.
He also criticised the Union government's handling of education, alleging that the current Education Minister supported atrocities. Referring to the removal of Dharmendra Pradhan, Dipke said another "strange person" had been appointed in his place and questioned what alternative the government had.
Dipke said the students protesting were from ordinary families and criticised attempts to troll them. He also acknowledged the support extended by farmer leaders, saying he came from a farming family and would always stand with farmers whenever required.
'I Will Never Join BJP'
Dipke said he would not join the BJP even if offered the opportunity. He alleged that he had received threats asking him to join the party and claimed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah were intimidating people of his generation.
He also accused the government of shifting attention away from issues such as unemployment, inflation and farmers' concerns.
Commenting on the Delhi Police, Dipke said officers should either follow the Constitution or "take off their khaki trousers, wear khaki shorts and raise slogans outside the BJP headquarters."
He further claimed that he had seen a truck carrying stones being brought to Delhi before the protest and alleged that the police had planned to later blame the students. According to Dipke, the entire operation was pre-planned by the police.
Speaking to reporters in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke directly targeted Union Home Minister Amit Shah, demanding his resignation following police action against students during the July 20 "Sansad Chalo" protest in Delhi over examination paper leaks.
Dipke addressed claims being made by governing party leaders alleging that the CJP's agitation was foreign-funded or orchestrated from outside India:
"Amit Shah should definitely resign. There is another thing being said: that the Cockroach Janta Party is receiving funding from outside or that the movement is being run from outside. If this is happening, then it reflects the failure of a person like Amit Shah
. If the CJP is being run from outside, then what kind of 'Chanakya' is he ? The order to use force against students on July 20 must have been issued by Amit Shah and no one else."
Key Points Made by Dipke
Direct Allegations on the Crackdown: Dipke echoed Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi's stance, asserting that a police action of that scale against protesting students in the national capital could not have taken place without orders from the Union Home Minister.
Claims of Staged Provocation: Dipke alleged that the Delhi Police brought trucks loaded with stones and damaged vehicles to the Jantar Mantar site on the morning of July 20 to frame agitating students for stone-pelting and justify the subsequent police crackdown.
Criticism of Law Enforcement: Urging police forces to adhere strictly to the Constitution rather than political directives, Dipke remarked that if officers act on political orders, they should "switch to khaki chaddi (half pants) and stand before the BJP headquarters saying 'main bhi chowkidar'."
Cabinet Changes: He criticized the appointment of Pralhad Joshi as the new Union Education Minister following the resignation of Dharmendra Pradhan, calling the handling of student grievances inadequate.
