CJP Removes Spokesperson Vijeta Dahiya After Viral Burger Video During ProtestPreviousNext

The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) removed spokesperson Vijeta Dahiya after a viral video showed him eating a burger at a mall during the party's 'Chalo Sansad' protest in Delhi, where demonstrators faced police action. The party condemned his conduct as "deeply insensitive" and inconsistent with its values. Dahiya defended himself, citing exhaustion and hunger, and questioned the criticism. He was also confronted by protesters for his absence. The timing of the video has not been independently verified, and the controversy sparked widespread online debate.
