CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke said his studies at Boston University were financed by a scholarship and an education loan, responding to a Surat-based RTI activist’s demand for a probe into his father’s finances. Dipke said he would share the documents if the activist’s leader showed his “real degree”. Dipke’s scholarship document showed Boston University awarded him $12,500 per semester for three semesters, totalling $37,500, according to the report. He said the remaining cost was covered by a loan that is still unpaid. Dipke, who holds a master’s degree in public relations, also announced a two-day CJP strategy meeting in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar from 5 August.
