‘Promoting politics of violence, anarchy’: BJP claims foreign link to Opposition protest against CEC

‘Promoting politics of violence, anarchy’: BJP claims foreign link to Opposition protest against CEC

What's behind this

Protesters in Bengaluru have focused on Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over the SIR issue, according to India Today. The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) has also been active, mocking Union minister Jitendra Singh after he accused CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke of receiving US funding for an anti‑SIR campaign. Singh made the allegation on Tuesday, and CJP leaders responded on Thursday with the question “why were you negotiating with us then”. The party has announced a further anti‑SIR protest in Kochi on Nov 7, demanding Kumar’s removal.
