Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke reacted to media reports about school students in Madhya Pradesh’s Vidisha protesting over an alleged fee hike, implying that this was the result of the student agitation started in Delhi
““Ek Dharmendra Pradhan ke resignation se kya hoga?” I hope you all have got your answers now,” Dipke wrote in a post on X, reacting to the reports.
Pradhan resigned as education minister on July 25 after a month-long student protest at Jantar Mantar by the CJP over alleged NEET-UG paper leak.
In the news clip shared by him, female school students of Madhya Pradesh can be seen protesting and raising slogans including, ‘Vidhayak ji, reduce our bus fares.’

CJP to launch nationwide campaign to improve government schools
Dipke announced a nationwide campaign on Monday, August 10, aimed at improving government schools in villages. Under the campaign, parents will be encouraged to conduct social audits of basic facilities, while sarpanches will be urged to take responsibility for improving schools in their villages.
The campaign will be launched on August 15, with the CJP calling on citizens, parents and village leaders to work together to address what it described as the “neglect of rural educational infrastructure.”
In a video message, Dipke said he would launch the initiative from his village, Hingoli, in Maharashtra, by approaching the village head and seeking improvements in government schools there.

“The coming 15th August is our 80th Independence Day. But, if anything has been neglected or ignored the most in the last 80 years, it is the government schools in our villages,” Dipke said.
“We have made a new Parliament, a new PM house. Why have we not been able to build new schools in our villages? Do we not consider the children of farmers and labourers the future of our country?” he asked.
Dipke said children in villages continue to walk long distances to attend school and often lack basic facilities such as drinking water and toilets.
‘Jantar Mantar season 2 is coming soon’
Two days later, Dipke announced that a similar protest on the lines of the student protest will begin soon, which he termed a “Season 2 of Jantar Mantar”.
Addressing a public meet, Dipke said, “Many people were commenting on Instagram when Season 2 of ‘Jantar-Mantar’ will begin. I want to tell them that Season 2 of ‘Jantar-Mantar’ is going to start very soon.”
Dipke’s announcement comes after the CJP led a 37-day-long protest from Jantar Mantar, which was withdrawn on July 25 after Dharmendra Pradhan resigned and they received assurance on their other key demands.
