Dipke Recalls Being Furious With Saurav Das, Ashutosh Ranka During CJP’s Challenging Moment
Dipke recalls heated moment involving CJP teammates.
Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder and convenor Abhijeet Dipke on Sunday recalled a moment of frustration involving party spokespersons Ashutosh Ranka and Sourav Das during the ‘Sansad Chalo’ march on July 20. Dipke said he was “mad” at the two leaders after they were unavailable at a crucial point when the crowd was waiting to move forward. His remarks shed light on the challenges he faced while attempting to coordinate the demonstration and manage an impatient gathering. Recalling the incident, Dipke said the crowd had grown increasingly restless and wanted to proceed with the march.
However, he said he did not have enough energy at that moment to lead the group himself. The absence of Ranka and Das added to the situation, leaving Dipke searching for support as participants waited for the next move. Dipke described his reaction to the situation while recounting the events of the march. His frustration was reflected in his recollection of calling out to the two spokespersons and asking, “Where the hell are you guys…?” The remark highlighted the pressure he was under as the gathering became impatient and expectations grew for the march to continue.
The July 20 ‘Sansad Chalo’ march was organised as part of CJP’s political activities and brought together supporters seeking to move towards Parliament. Such demonstrations require coordination among organisers, particularly when crowds become large and movement through the capital requires management. Dipke's account suggested that the availability of senior party members became important as participants waited for instructions and sought to proceed. Dipke's recollection also highlighted the difference between organising a political gathering and maintaining momentum once a crowd has assembled. With participants eager to continue, organisers have to communicate quickly and ensure that key representatives are present to guide the group.

In this instance, Dipke said he was physically low on energy, making the presence of his spokespersons particularly important. The CJP founder's comments appeared to offer a candid account of the behind-the-scenes difficulties during the march rather than a formal criticism of Ranka or Das. By describing himself as “mad” at the time, Dipke acknowledged the tension surrounding the episode while explaining the circumstances that led to his reaction. The remarks also provided an insight into the internal coordination required during the party's public campaigns.
Ranka and Das have been associated with the party as spokespersons, making their involvement relevant to public demonstrations and communication of the CJP's positions. Dipke's recollection centred on their absence during the specific episode on July 20 and did not indicate any broader dispute within the organisation. The incident, as recalled by Dipke, ultimately reflected a moment of pressure during the ‘Sansad Chalo’ march, when an impatient crowd was ready to move but its organiser lacked the energy to lead it. His comments about Ranka and Das offered a personal account of how the situation unfolded and why he became frustrated with their unavailability at the time.
