‘Entire nation will turn Jantar Mantar’: CJP’s Abhijeet Dipke warns of nationwide protests

Abhijeet Dipke, founder of the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP), warned on Tuesday that demonstrations would break out across India if protests are banned at Delhi’s Jantar Mantar.

Speaking to the media in his native Santuk Pimpri village in Maharashtra's Hingoli district, where he was attending the asthi visarjan of his late grandmother, Savitribai Dipke, Dipke stated that if police intercept him en route to Delhi, he will start the agitation wherever he is detained.
