CJP Founder Abhijeet Dipke Diagnosed With Typhoid, Vows Nationwide Youth Agitation Will Continue
Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke has announced that he has tested positive for typhoid, but affirmed that his diagnosis will not slow down the ongoing nationwide youth demonstrations. In a video message posted to X (formerly Twitter) from New Delhi, the activist shared that he had experienced severe body aches, fever, and fatigue over recent days, leading medical professionals to initiate intravenous (IV) treatment twice daily. Despite his temporary physical absence from the protest epicenter at Jantar Mantar, Dipke expressed deep gratitude to CJP supporters—whom he affectionately termed “cockroaches”—for maintaining momentum in peaceful rallies across major Indian cities. He maintained that the movement’s primary mandate remains firm, insisting that demonstrations will persist unabated until Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan steps down and systemic reforms to the national examination framework are fully institutionalized.
