CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke slapped multiple times at Jaipur protest – Video

NEW DELHI: Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke was slapped multiple times while being carried on supporters’ shoulders during a protest in Jaipur over the alleged NEET paper leak and unemployment.According to police and eyewitnesses cited by PTI, the incident took place at Shaheed Smarak, where a large number of young people had gathered for a demonstration organised by the CJP. Videos circulating on social media showed Dipke being lifted above the crowd when some youths allegedly struck him as he moved through the gathering. Police said the situation escalated after Dipke’s supporters allegedly caught hold of the accused youths and assaulted them before officers intervened. Two youths have since been detained and an investigation is underway, officials said.The protest centred on allegations of examination irregularities, paper leaks and rising unemployment. Demonstrators carried placards against corruption and demanded action on issues affecting young people. Slogans were also raised calling for the resignation of Union education minister Dharmendra Pradhan over the controversy surrounding the NEET examination. The Jaipur protest forms part of a wider campaign launched by the CJP under the banner “Justice”. The party has been organising demonstrations in several cities, arguing that the alleged NEET question paper leak reflected serious failures in the examination system and required accountability from those responsible.Earlier, despite torrential rain, large numbers of youths gathered at Freedom Park in Bengaluru for a similar protest. Demonstrators accused the BJP-led Centre of failing to prevent alleged examination irregularities and demanded stronger safeguards to ensure such incidents do not recur.Actor Prakash Raj joined the Bengaluru protest in support of the campaign, while several youth groups and organisations also took part. Organisers said the movement would continue across major cities, insisting that accountability must be fixed over the alleged NEET scam and broader concerns related to youth employment and education.
