CJP Leader Meets Mamata Banerjee, Says Party Won't Join INDIA Rally

Abhijeet Dipke, founder of the Cockroach Janta Party, met with Mamata Banerjee in Delhi on Saturday. During the meeting, Dipke expressed gratitude for Banerjee's support of the party's youth-led protests.

Dipke emphasized that the CJP would maintain its independent status and not participate in the Sunday INDIA bloc rally. He stated the party supports the protest but remains a neutral, independent organization.

Dipke acknowledged Banerjee's backing during the party's first protest at Jantar Mantar and when its leaders Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka were arrested by the Delhi Police. He said Banerjee had consistently supported the youth movement.

Banerjee, who is in Delhi and will attend the Sunday rally, praised Dipke and the activists for their role in protests against the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls and the Election Commission.

She noted that the activists have provided full support for the rally and that she has extended all support to them. Banerjee also invited Dipke and the activists to West Bengal to organize programs there.

The meeting between Dipke and Banerjee occurred the day before the INDIA bloc rally at Ramlila Maidan, where opposition parties plan to address alleged electoral irregularities and demand accountability from the Election Commission.
