Day before FIR against Dipke, Minister Bhuse ‘welcomed CJP school checks’

Day before FIR against Dipke, Minister Bhuse ‘welcomed CJP school checks’

On August 21, just before an FIR was registered against Abhijeet Dipke, the founder of the Cockroach Janta Party, for allegedly trespassing into a school in Latur, School Education Minister Dada Bhuse expressed his support for the School Thik Karo campaign initiated by Dipke. During a media interaction at Malegaon, Bhuse stated, "Whether it is Abhijeet ji or any regular citizen, the department welcomes their suggestions."

He further added, "We accept that there are deficiencies in some schools, and it is our responsibility to make improvements."

The FIR against Dipke and unidentified persons was filed on August 22 by the Latur police, accusing them of entering an Urdu Zilla Parishad School without permission on August 20, recording the incident, and sharing it on social media. The FIR alleged that the accused intentionally entered the school with the intention to defame it by claiming that students from another school were being forced to attend there.

Dipke launched the School Thik Karo campaign following Independence Day, urging citizens to conduct school audits to enhance infrastructure facilities.
