CJP Is Back in the Election Roll Conversation - But With a Fresh Demand

The Cockroach Janata Party gave Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar 48 hours to resign, threatening nationwide protests over alleged electoral-roll manipulation, which the Election Commission disputes. Founder Abhijeet Dipke cited reports of objections from two commissioners and removal of over 13 crore draft-roll names. The CJP demands Kumar's resignation, an independent probe, suspension of the SIR process, and repeal of the 2023 appointments law.
