CJP team confronted on way to Rajasthan school; Ranka says BJP goons, not villagers
The CJP team arrived at a government school near Jaipur in Rajasthan to inspect the facility, but faced violent opposition from local residents who accused the activists of being BJP goons. The activists were prevented from entering the village and were attacked by an unknown number of individuals. The CJP team, led by Ashutosh Ranka, claims the school was functioning out of a dilapidated cowshed for the past three years, with students taught in such unsanitary conditions.
Ranka, a founder of the Cockroach Janta Party, demanded action against the alleged goons within 48 hours. The incident has reignited debates over the negligence of the government in providing basic facilities to schools and the safety of activists working towards their improvement.
