Over 13 crore voters deleted, what is this if not a setting: Abhijeet Dipke

NEW DELHI, 15/10/2026: Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke accused the government of deleting over 13 crore voters and attempting to influence electoral outcomes. Speaking at a press conference alongside Neha Bora, Aisa, Aishe Ghosh, and Prakash Raj, Dipke questioned the deletion of the names of 13 crore voters ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, stating, "Over 13 crore voters deleted.

Where 2% is deciding the election, you are deleting 13 crore votes. What is this if not a setting?" He also alleged that extra restrictions had been put in place to stop people from protesting for Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar's resignation. Dipke accused the government of detaining former chief ministers, MPs, opposition leaders, and shutting down railways and metros for Gyanesh Kumar.

He accused the government of targeting protesters carrying the national flag and urged citizens to join demonstrations, emphasizing that waving the national flag was a democratic right. Neha Bora condemned detentions and alleged attacks on journalists, while Aishe Ghosh called for unity to defend democracy.
