The Cockroach Protests: A Rebellion Against Modi's Government of Denial The streets of India's capital, Delhi, have been filled with protesters from the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), a youth led movement demanding education reforms and the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.
What began as a satirical response to the Indian judiciary's condescending remarks about unemployed young people has evolved into a full blown rebellion against Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government.
At its core, this protest is not just about education policy or even the CJP's immediate demands. It's about growing disillusionment with the Modi administration's inability to deliver on its promises.
