Cockroach Party Plans Hyderabad Protest at Dharna Chowk on June 14

According to the schedule shared on its social media platforms, a protest will be held at Dharna Chowk in Hyderabad on June 14 at 10 am. On the same day, another demonstration is planned at Freedom Park in Bengaluru at 4 pm. The protests will continue on June 15 at Shaheed Smarak in Jaipur at 3 pm, followed by a protest at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi on June 20.

Addressing a press conference in Pune, the party’s founding president, Abhijeet Dipke, said the organisation would also release its education manifesto alongside the launch of the movement.

“We are starting our nationwide protest from today at SPPU. The protest will be peaceful and within the framework of the Constitution. Today, we will be releasing our education manifesto,” he said.

Dipke stated that the manifesto addresses key concerns raised by students in recent years, including prevention of question paper leaks, timely declaration of results, transparency in recruitment and entrance examinations, and stronger accountability of examination authorities.

He also said the organisation remains open to dialogue with the government but alleged restrictions on its social media presence. “CJP is a big message for the country. The government cannot ignore the youth. Instead of calling us fake, try to understand the issues faced by the youth,” he added.

Earlier, on June 6, the group organised a protest at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi, where students from different states gathered to demand accountability over alleged irregularities in competitive examinations and push for reforms in the education system. The group has since gained visibility through social media campaigns focused on exam-related issues.
