The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) has released a detailed list of do’s and don’ts ahead of its planned June 6 protest at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi, where participants are expected to gather to demand accountability over recent examination controversies.
The protest, which has attracted significant attention on social media, is being positioned as a peaceful demonstration focused on education reforms and student concerns.
Protest Scheduled at Jantar Mantar
According to the advisory shared by the organization, participants have been asked to assemble near Parliament Street Police Station, close to Jantar Mantar, at 9 am on June 6.
CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke confirmed that he is travelling to India ahead of the event. Earlier, supporters had been urged to gather at Delhi airport, but organizers later requested people not to do so in order to avoid inconvenience to the public.
In a social media message, the organization described the event as a peaceful and democratic expression of dissent.
“Time to turn this tiny joke into a revolution. Get ready to gather peacefully and raise your voice for accountability,” the message stated.

Document the Event Responsibly
Participants have also been advised to record and document the protest peacefully and responsibly.
Cooperate With Authorities
The advisory asks attendees to immediately report any suspicious or disruptive activity to law enforcement officials.
Stay Safe in the Heat
With temperatures expected to remain high, organizers have advised people to:

Participants have been encouraged to follow all legal instructions, cooperate with authorities, and ensure the demonstration remains focused on education-related concerns.
