Cockroach Janta Party Founder Abhijeet Dipke Slapped During Jaipur Protest Over Exam LeaksPreviousNext

During a protest at Jaipur's Shaheed Smarak on June 15, Cockroach Janta Party founder Abhijeet Dipke was allegedly slapped and manhandled by unidentified individuals while being carried on supporters' shoulders. The protest focused on alleged NEET paper leaks, examination irregularities, and unemployment, with demands for Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation. Following the incident, Dipke condemned the attack as an act of cowardice and vowed to continue peaceful protests. Police detained multiple youths in connection with the assault, and Dipke later alleged involvement of RSS members. The protest movement is ongoing, with further demonstrations planned, including one in Nagpur.
