The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), led by founder Abhijeet Dipke and key members including Ashutosh Ranka and Saurav Das, staged a high-profile ‘Chappal Protest’ alongside a People’s Tribunal at Freedom Park in Bengaluru. Prominent actor-activist Prakash Raj and YouTuber Dhruv Rathee joined the agitation to address allegations surrounding the controversial Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of voter lists.
Organizers stated that the demonstration aimed to highlight citizens wrongfully removed from electoral rolls and show solidarity with affected women. The event drew significant public and media attention amid ongoing nationwide debates regarding electoral transparency and institutional accountability.
