New Delhi: The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) is preparing for another major mobilisation in Delhi on October 10, with co-convenor Saurav Das urging the country’s youth to gather at Jantar Mantar and intensify the demand for Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar’s resignation.

Das said the organisation had formally approached the Delhi Police regarding the proposed demonstration and completed the required formalities. He said CJP had also given an undertaking to maintain law and order during the protest and expected cooperation from the police.

The development comes amid heightened tensions in the national capital over protests against the Election Commission and the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls.

CJP has been demanding Kumar’s resignation over alleged irregularities in the revision exercise, allegations that have not been independently established.

The October 10 mobilisation was first announced by CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke after the organisation’s October 2 demonstration at Mumbai’s Shivaji Park. Dipke had called for a 'Chalo Delhi' campaign, saying supporters from across the country would gather at Jantar Mantar if Kumar did not step down.

Das has now sought to position the proposed gathering as a wider youth movement rather than an event restricted to CJP members.

He said the organisation’s call was aimed at Gen-Z and young people across the country, asking them to travel to Delhi and join the demonstration.

The CJP leader also indicated that the group intends to continue its agitation until its demand is met.

The mobilisation comes after several days of protests in Delhi over the SIR issue, during which hundreds of demonstrators were detained. Police have maintained that unauthorised gatherings in central Delhi cannot be permitted.

However, the issue of police permission has already emerged as a fresh flashpoint. On October 7, reports said the Delhi Police had denied permission for CJP’s October 10 protest.

Das subsequently questioned the basis on which police could prevent a peaceful assembly, signalling that the disagreement over the demonstration could escalate before Saturday.

CJP has nevertheless maintained that it intends to proceed with the mobilisation. Earlier, another CJP co-convenor, Ashutosh Ranka, said the organisation would go ahead with its march even if permission was denied.

The October 10 protest is expected to be the next major flashpoint in the ongoing confrontation between youth-led groups and authorities over the electoral-roll revision.

CJP has described the mobilisation as a fight for voting rights and electoral accountability, while urging supporters across the country to respond to its 'Chalo Delhi' call.

Das’s appeal also reflects the organisation’s attempt to broaden the campaign beyond its own political platform and portray the October 10 gathering as a youth-led movement centred on the Election Commission and the right to vote.
