Hundreds of protesters from the Gen-Z-led Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) were detained in Delhi while attempting to demonstrate for electoral reforms. The movement, founded by Abhijeet Dipke, emerged in response to controversial remarks by India's Chief Justice and has recently focused on allegations of voter list manipulation. Despite heavy police presence, road barricades, and the detention of several top leaders upon their arrival in the capital, the group attempted to move forward with protests. The Election Commission and the ruling BJP have denied all allegations of bias or misconduct regarding the update of electoral rolls.
