The issue of employment and paper leak is continuously raising the political temperature in Uttar Pradesh. Meanwhile, a new trend on social media ‘Cockroach Janata Party’ (CJP) has come into limelight. The politics of Kasganj district has also become quite heated regarding this unique trend. Sahawar Municipal Council Chairperson Nashi Khan has started a new debate on this entire matter by writing a very sharp and poignant social media post. He has clearly said that if someone calls the youth who raise their voice for their rights as ‘cockroach’, then he too happily accepts this name.
In fact, for some time now, students and youth who were protesting on social media and in political circles were allegedly being trolled by calling them ‘parasites’ or ‘cockroaches’. Countering this, Nashi Khan has written this post. His statement has now become a topic of discussion not only in Kasganj but also in many nearby districts. It is being told that his candid post is getting a lot of support among the youth and students.
Paper leak issue and Nashi Khan’s counterattack
Nowadays, whenever any youth talks about employment or takes to the streets against the frequent paper leaks of competitive examinations, he often has to become a victim of vulgar political rhetoric. Sharing this pain, Nashi Khan wrote in his post that seeing the trend of ‘Cockroach Janata Party’ going on on social media, it makes him laugh and also forces him to think. He sarcastically said that when the educated youth of the country asks for a job for their future and questions the system, they are easily rewarded with words like ‘cockroach’ or ‘parasite’.
‘Cockroach remains alive even in adverse conditions’
In politics, the arrows of words often turn on the one who uses them and Nashi Khan did exactly the same. He has presented this allegedly derogatory word as the strength of youth. In his post he has written a very interesting thing that “Remember, the cockroach has the power to survive even in the most adverse conditions!” In fact, this line shows the struggle of lakhs of youth who prepare for government jobs by staying in small rooms for years and then suddenly the news of paper leak pushes them back into the fire of the same struggle.
You will remember that in the last few years, words like ‘agitator’ and ‘parasite’ have been used a lot in the country’s politics. Whenever any section raised its voice for its rights, social media trolls gave them similar titles. Now the word ‘cockroach’ has been raised on the same lines. But the way the Sahawar Municipality President has transformed this word into a symbol of ‘survival’ and ‘struggle’ is being considered very important politically. According to the local people, this outspokenness of Nashi Khan is being liked a lot by the youth, because there is someone who is directly trying to convert their insult into respect.
Big message given to the youth of Sahawar and Kasganj
At the end of his post, Nashi Khan has tried to connect directly with the youth of his area. Addressing the youth of Sahawar and Kasganj, he said that they are not at all alone in this fight. He said, “If people are calling those who raise their voice for rights as ‘cockroaches’, then I also accept this name.” She has assured the youth that she is standing shoulder to shoulder with them in this difficult fight for their employment, their respect and their rights.
If political experts are to be believed, the resentment of the youth is becoming a big issue in Uttar Pradesh. In such a situation, local level leaders coming out openly in support of the youth and expressing their protest in such a unique way can be a sign of a big political storm in the times to come. At present, this statement of Nashi Khan is going viral on social media and the youth are giving their positive reactions on it.
