New Delhi: Since the formation of Cockroach Janata Party (CJP), the discussion about its protests has intensified. Earlier the party had protested regarding the NEET paper leak issue, after which now CJP and opposition parties are on the streets in many cities including Mumbai-Delhi demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. Meanwhile, a central government minister has given a big offer to CJP founder Abhijit Deepke.
After coming out of custody, Abhijeet Deepke is now preparing the future strategy, when Union Minister Ramdas Athawale has invited him to join his party.
'Modi is the captain in 2029 also'
Union Minister of State for Social Justice and Empowerment Ramdas Athawale said that there is not going to be a change of power even in the 2029 Lok Sabha elections. He said, "Modi is our captain and I am his player. PM Modi's fleet is strong, he will take the wicket of Rahul Gandhi." Athawale offered Deepke to join Republican Party of India (A) and said that if he is a true Ambedkarite then he should come to RPI (A) to connect the youth. He said, "He should think about this, he can strengthen our party with the ideas of Babasaheb Ambedkar."
Gave warning earlier
This is not the first time that Athawale has given a statement regarding Deepke. Earlier this month, he had warned that his party would agitate if the use of objectionable language against PM Modi continued. Athawale had said, "Deepke comes from Maharashtra, belongs to Dalit community. Protested in Mumbai, but my advice is that after the NEET paper leak, there is no need to agitate for the resignation of Gyanesh Kumar. Gyanesh Kumar will not resign due to CJP's performance."
Who is Ramdas Athawale?
Ramdas Athawale is a veteran leader of Maharashtra and the President of RPI (A). He has been a Minister of State in the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment since 2016 and a Rajya Sabha MP from Maharashtra since 2014.
