The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) is preparing for its October 10 protest at Delhi’s Jantar Mantar, demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. The demonstration is backed by student organisations and other groups raising concerns over alleged irregularities in electoral roll revisions and voter deletions. Delhi authorities have intensified security arrangements, deploying thousands of police and paramilitary personnel. Reports indicate that the protest has not received official permission, with prohibitory orders in force. The planned demonstration adds to growing opposition-led protests demanding accountability and transparency in the Election Commission’s functioning. (PC: Times Now)
