Samajwadi Party MP Dimple Yadav said she and other young party MPs were prepared to join the Delhi Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) protest even without permission from the party leadership. Speaking at the SP headquarters, she called the movement a "Sanjivani booti" (life-saving herb) for the country and said it had sent a message that the BJP can be defeated through collective action. Dimple said the MPs felt connected to the protesters because they seemed like "our own children fighting for their rights." She alleged protesters told them their clothes were torn and they received electric shocks, without elaborating. SP chief Akhilesh Yadav said the party supported the movement from day one and described the political contest as "BJP versus CJP."

## Indian Opinion Analysis

The Cockroach Janata Party is a mock political party that began in 2024 as a protest vehicle for young Indians demanding a separate reservation category for the general category poor. It has no real electoral presence but has drawn large online and on-ground support, particularly from first-time voters frustrated with the existing quota system. The protest that SP MPs joined is focused on jobs and education reservations. For SP, backing a youth-led, anti-BJP movement fits its existing social-justice platform and helps it reclaim space from Congress among young voters. The next test will be whether the CJP can convert street support into a sustained political force, or if this remains a one-issue movement that parties will only borrow from when convenient.
