Cockroach Party Leaders Detained to Stop Protests

Hundreds of protesters and leaders from the Gen-Z led Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) were detained in Delhi ahead of a demonstration demanding electoral reforms. The movement, founded by Abhijeet Dipke in response to comments by India's Chief Justice, is seeking the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over alleged voter list manipulation. While the Election Commission and the ruling BJP deny these allegations, Delhi authorities deployed significant security, barricaded roads, and closed metro stations to prevent the protest at Jantar Mantar. Police have not officially commented on the specific detentions of the group's leaders.
