Cockroach Janta Party’s co-convener Saurav Das formally intimated the Delhi Police on Wednesday about the proposed October 10 protest at Jantar Mantar to demand the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar and for reforms in the Election Commission of India.
Otherwise we won’t return. “We reached the Parliament Street Police Station, and I handed them a formal letter. We asked them to maintain law and order, cooperate with us, and make necessary traffic arrangements. “We have submitted the formal notification and have received the acknowledgement copy from the Delhi Police. Based on our discussions, they also obtained an undertaking from us, and we completed all the required formalities for it. We hope the Delhi Police will cooperate,” he added. “Even if Gyanesh Kumar resigns, we will not bow down. We want proper reforms in election commission. Otherwise, the ECI will never be fair…We have to ensure that Kumar resigns and he is arrested. We want systemic reforms, freezing SIR, probing illegal decisions during SIR. Government should ensure people like Kumar don’t sit at such position. I want everyone to come. Pack your bags. “We are all on one side. Student organisations, INDIA bloc and others. On the other side, only ECI and BJP are there. BJP is taking help of ECI and police. On October 10th, all of us from different organisations will join the protest. The last time all of us were all on same page, the cabinet minister had to resign.
We informed them that the ‘Cockroach Janta Party’ and the youth of the entire nation, all these ‘cockroaches’, are set to gather at Jantar Mantar on October 10. Because we know our fight will be strengthened by the masses, we just want to reach out to all political parties, student organisations and groups.
He said that they are expecting a large crowd and have informed the Delhi police accordingly as he reiterated the pressure group’s “Dilli Chalo” call. We have provided this formal intimation,” Das said as he addressed the media. It will be a long fight,” he said. We will show the same unity and struggle for the movement,” she said.
