Abhijeet Dipke Celebrates Raksha Bandhan with Cockroach-Themed Rakhi and Political Message
Cockroach Janta Party founder Abhijeet Dipke marked Raksha Bandhan by wearing a cockroach-shaped rakhi bearing the message "Rakhi aur isteefa mubarak." The symbol references a remark by Chief Justice Surya Kant and represents the youth-led CJP, which protested alleged NEET exam irregularities. The 36-day protests ended following Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation. Dipke's group has since launched a campaign highlighting issues in government schools, focusing on basic facility shortcomings.
