Congress and CJP Clash Over Protest Leadership Amid Opposition Divisions
Supporters of the Indian National Congress and the youth-led Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) have engaged in a public dispute over credit for mobilizing protests against the Election Commission of India's Special Intensive Revision process. While both demand Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar's resignation over alleged electoral irregularities, CJP leaders criticize Congress and other opposition groups for sidelining their movement. Congress denies these claims, highlighting past support for CJP activists and accusing the group of aligning with the Aam Aadmi Party. Meanwhile, Trinamool Congress leader Mamata Banerjee has expressed support for CJP, revealing divisions within the opposition alliance.
