The protest, titled “Save Democracy! The Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) on Thursday announced an anti-Special Intensive Revision (SIR) protest in Kochi, Kerala, on November 7, renewing the call for the cancellation of the voter roll revision exercise. Cancel SIR!”, will be held at Rajendra Maidan from 4 pm, CJP said in a post on X.
They were arrested and spent a week in jail before being released after giving an undertaking to the Special Executive Magistrate (SEM) that they would not organise any further protests at Jantar Mantar as long as the site remained denotified. CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke will be part of the demonstration. The government subsequently denotified Jantar Mantar as a protest site. However, Das and Ranka breached the protest site and waved the national flag to protest against the denotification.
CJP leaders Vijay Mallangi, the party’s south zone lead, and Aafreen Nawaz, its national secretary, are also expected to attend the anti-SIR protest in Kochi on November 7.
