Jantar Mantar 2.0: Why EC is Cockroach Janta Party’s latest target
The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) issued a 48-hour ultimatum for Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar to resign, warning of a nationwide protest reminiscent of the Jantar Mantar demonstrations if he fails to comply. The party accused Kumar of "undermining" voter rights and launched the "Election Commission Thik Karo" campaign.
CJP spokesperson Ashutosh Ranka addressed a press conference in Delhi, urging Kumar to step down immediately, stating that if he does not, the party will commence a nationwide protest. This move follows an investigative report by The Indian Express detailing instances where Election Commissioners Sukhbir Singh Sandhu and Vivek Joshi voiced objections to decisions made on the commission's behalf over a period of 10 months.
