The road ahead for CJP

Download App The Cockroach Janta Party is focused on being a 'pressure group' for now, looking to the nation for its next big cause while also putting in place a structure for itselfPATH FINDERS: A core committee meeting of the CJP at Abhijeet Dipke’s residence in Sambhajinagar, Aug. 5.DELHI / CHHATRAPATI SAMBHAJINAGAR,ISSUE DATE: Aug 17, 2026 | UPDATED: Aug 7, 2026 17:18 IST 'Kya bolti public?” Two days of deliberations later, members of the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) have decided to take that question to the streets, fanning out across the nation and listening to what people at the grassroots want. But perhaps the more important message to emerge from the ‘Cockroach Conclave’ in Sambhajinagar at party convenor Abhijeet Dipke’s residence is one of ambition.
