CJP's Abhijeet Dipke announces nationwide campaign 'Kya bolti public' to grasp people's issues

CJP leader Abhijeet Dipke announced a nationwide campaign called Kya Bolti Public on Thursday. The campaign aims to gather insights into people's concerns. Dipke highlighted that the primary focus would be on education, as rising tuition fees have rendered quality education unaffordable for many families. Speaking at a press conference following a core team meeting, Dipke emphasized that education fees for class 1 range from ₹1 lakh to ₹2 lakh, not including additional donations.

He questioned how families with limited incomes can afford these costs. Dipke also criticized the increasing burden of college and coaching fees, alleging that these fees are driving families into debt. He argued that parents should not face financial strain when seeking higher education for their children. Dipke invoked BR Ambedkar's assertion that education is a fundamental right, but in recent years, it has become a business.

The Jantar Mantar protest's response, according to Dipke, extended beyond NEET or the education system, indicating a broader dissatisfaction with the political system. He expressed concerns about the erosion of faith in democratic institutions, noting that voters frequently see representatives switch parties post-elections. Dipke questioned the judiciary's neutrality, suggesting that rulings often favor the ruling party while ordinary citizens face delays in hearings.

He also pointed out that courts swiftly rule in favor of political parties, whereas cases involving ordinary citizens receive delayed attention.
