Congratulations to the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) for their remarkable victory, demonstrating that even those labeled “cockroaches” by the BJP government can rise and challenge the establishment. This movement has proven that youth activism knows no bounds when it comes to demanding justice in India. The youth have not only confronted the government but also exposed the biases of the so-called Godi media, which often supports the BJP and fuels divisions among Indian citizens on religious lines. This awakening shows the power of an informed and united youth against misinformation and communal politics. This struggle also highlights a deeper issue: the rise of uneducated politicians who rely on money and muscle power to secure power as ministers and MLAs. Such leadership undermines democracy and justice, as seen in the repression of student protests and police brutality. Let us not forget the students who sacrificed their lives and the countless youths beaten by Delhi police while exercising their democratic rights. The question now is: Whose ministerial chair is next on the chopping block? The BJP government cannot continue to fool the people or sustain its divisive “divide and rule” tactics indefinitely.
RONNIE DSOUZA, Chandor
