CJP founder gives election chief 48 hours to resign
Cockroach Janta Party founder Abhijeet Dipke demanded on September 24 that Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar resign within 48 hours, threatening nationwide agitation if he did not. Dipke made the demand at a press conference in New Delhi, where he accused the Election Commission of undermining voting rights. The allegations are his claims and were not independently verified in the supplied accounts. Dipke said his party would continue its agitation until Kumar stepped down. He described the commission’s handling of electoral rolls as a threat to democracy and alleged that the government was effectively deciding who could vote. The reported ultimatum sets a 48-hour deadline, but no resignation or protest following it was confirmed in the accounts. Dipke also alleged that more than 13 crore votes had been deleted. He did not provide a defined population, baseline or time period for the figure in the reported remarks, and the claim was not independently substantiated. He linked alleged deletions in constituencies associated with opposition figures to their election losses, but those claimed totals and connections were also presented as allegations, not established findings.
