New Delhi: The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), led by its founder Abhijeet Dipke, is currently staging a protest at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi over the recent NEET 2026 paper leak, calling for the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.
At the same time, a video featuring the organisation's chief spokesperson, Saurav Das, has gone viral on social media.
The purported video shows him sitting at the protest site, surrounded by CJP supporters, sipping what is claimed to be coffee from a paper cup as he is being fanned by a man behind him with what looks like a poster. The video has triggered backlash against Das on X.

"Look at this video... CJP chief spokesperson Saurav Das has brought a servant along just to fan him because it's too hot outside. These are the same people who claim to be fighting for equality and social justice," one of the users said.
Another user commented, "CJP spokesperson Saurav Das has an elderly poor man fanning him while he is served cold coffee; this shows how little these brats care about poor people."
