Cockroach Janta Party founder to return to India on June 6, seek education minister’s resignation

Abhijeet Dipke, the founder of satirical political campaign Cockroach Janta Party, said on Monday that he will return to India on June 6 and launch a peaceful protest seeking the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.

Dipke, a 30-year-old political communications strategist who was part of the Aam Aadmi Party’s social media team, lives in the United States.

The founder of the satirical campaign called for Pradhan’s resignation in the wake of the cancellation of the undergraduate National Eligibility cum Entrance Test for medical college admissions following allegations of a paper leak.

Students and job seekers have also alleged irregularities in the Class 12 exam conducted by the Central Board of Secondary Education and the Staff Selection Commission test for government posts.

“The system has reduced the lives of over a crore students to a joke,” said the founder of the Cockroach Janta Party on Monday. “This has left students anxious and worried about their future…If the education minister does not resign even after such a big blunder, it means that there is simply no accountability left in the country.”
