CJP Founder Urges Opposition to Boycott Allegedly Rigged Elections
Cockroach Janta Party founder Abhijeet Dipke has urged opposition parties to boycott elections they allege are rigged, arguing that continued participation legitimises flawed polls and creates an illusion of fairness. He questioned whether opposition parties contest elections out of fear of political extinction despite alleged vote theft, poaching of representatives, and party splits. Dipke also criticised selective outrage over rigging, calling for consistent opposition regardless of affected states or parties. Opposition leaders, however, argue that boycotting could weaken their political challenge to the ruling party.
