Cockroach Janta Party: The Rise of A New Era | Documentary in Hindi
The "party" was created in response to remarks made on 15 May 2026 by Surya Kant, the Chief Justice of India, in which he referred to certain activists and unemployed youth as "cockroaches" and "parasites of society". Kant later said he was referring specifically to people who obtained fraudulent degrees, but his remarks nonetheless triggered broad criticism that India's economic and political landscape had become hostile to young people. The movement's name is a wordplay parodying the current ruling party in India, the Bharatiya Janata Party.
The party achieved significant popularity online, rapidly gaining a large following across social media platforms shortly after its formation. It issued a five-point manifesto relating to the conduct of parliament members and of election commissioners, reservation of seats for women in politics, and media licensing. Beginning in June, the party led protests in Delhi and across the country over the fallout from irregularities in that year's entrance examinations for undergraduate biomedical studies. The protests culminated in talks with the central government and the resignation of Dharmendra Pradhan, the Indian Minister of Education, on 25 July 2026. The education minister's resignation was considered a major victory for the cockroach movement.
Alongside its online presence, the movement organises protests and community service activities across India. The movement campaigns on broader societal, economic, and political issues affecting India. It is not registered as a political party with the Election Commission of India.
