Manish Brahmbhatt, founder of the Cockroach Janta Party-Democratic, announced the launch of a new political platform on Thursday, promising a focus on transparency, accountability, and democratic decision-making, according to news agency ANI.
Citizens can join the organization through its official social media handles, a WhatsApp number, and a dedicated missed-call facility.
“We are launching Cockroach Janta Party-Democratic. Today, we are announcing social media accounts, a WhatsApp number and a missed-call number for the nation,” Brahmbhatt stated. He added that the platform intends to build its national leadership through a democratic process where members actively participate in key decisions.

“Anyone who supports transparency and accountability, and believes that accountability should apply to the team as well and not just the government, can join,” he said.
Outlining the motivation behind founding the new party, Brahmbhatt alleged that a broader citizens' movement had been gradually co-opted by personal political interests. He noted that efforts were made to remind organizers that the cause belonged to the nation rather than any single leader.
