Ajinkya Shind Takes Charge as CJP Leaders Are Detained Ahead of Delhi Protest
Ajinkya Shind has taken the lead in coordinating the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP)’s planned protest in Delhi after three party leaders—Saurav Das, Ashutosh Ranka and Abhijeet Deepke—were reportedly detained while travelling from Mumbai.
The October 10 demonstration at Jantar Mantar was called to demand the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over alleged electoral irregularities. In a video message, Abhijeet Deepke reportedly named Shind to lead the protest effort. Shind later urged supporters to continue their efforts, according to the supplied account.
A Maharashtra-based activist and the party’s National Organisation In-charge, Shind previously worked in the IT sector and was associated with the Aam Aadmi Party. The source also reports that more than 2,000 people were detained in central Delhi amid restrictions on public gatherings. The reported detentions and protest-related claims have not been independently verified here.
