Hundreds of young protestors identifying with India’s “Cockroach Janta Party” have staged demonstrations demanding the resignation of the election chief. The group, largely comprised of Gen Z, alleges irregularities in voter roll changes and is protesting what they perceive as disenfranchisement. The “Cockroach Janta Party” originated as a social media trend mocking perceived government inaction and has evolved into a visible political force. Party representatives have announced plans to extend their campaign to cities across India throughout the current month. The protests highlight growing youth activism and concerns over electoral integrity within the country. Organizers aim to pressure authorities to address their demands and ensure fair elections. Further demonstrations are expected as the campaign gains momentum.
