'Don't come to airport': CJP founder's new appeal to supporters - what prompted U-turn?

NEW DELHI: Cockroach Janta Party founder Abhijeet Dipke on Thursday urged supporters not to gather at Delhi airport when he arrives in India on June 6, saying the overwhelming response to his campaign had exceeded expectations and that a large crowd could cause inconvenience to the public and security personnel.He said after arriving at the airport he will travel directly to the Parliament Street Police Station to seek permission for a demonstration at Jantar Mantar.“The overwhelming response from those who want the resignation of Dharmendra Pradhan to our call to join us at Delhi Airport was beyond our imagination. It is not feasible for so many people to assemble at the airport as it would cause inconvenience to the public and the security forces. So please do not come to Delhi airport,” Dipke said, in a video message posted on X. “Instead, I will be going to the Parliament Street Police station to seek permission directly for our peaceful protest at Jantar Mantar. We are law abiding citizens and have to act responsibly. So please be mindful that nobody should create any kind of disturbance,” he added.Earlier this week, Dipke announced that he would return to India on June 6 to launch a protest campaign calling for Pradhan’s resignation over what he described as repeated failures in the country’s examination system. In a separate video posted on social media, he urged students and supporters to join the movement, linking his demand to controversies surrounding major examinations, including NEET, CBSE, CUET and SSCGD.On Wednesday, the CJP appointed three spokespersons. The party named Saurav Das, Vijeta Dahiya and Ashutosh Ranka as its official spokespersons.
