Delhi Police serve notice to CJP chief Abhijeet Dipke ahead of planned Tiranga March at Connaught Place

Delhi Police reached Cockroach Janta Party founder Abhijeet Dipke's home to stop a planned protest at Central Park. The march faces prohibitory orders under Section 163 of BNSS, alongside pushback from local Connaught Place traders over business disruptions.


New Delhi: The Delhi Police visited Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke at his New Delhi residence on Friday, serving him an official notice asking him not to take out the planned ‘tiranga yatra’. The party had asked supporters and the public to assemble at Central Park in Connaught Place to wave the national flag.


The protest was called against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over alleged voter-list manipulation during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. Tensions also rose following the arrest of CJP members Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka. Both were sent to five-day judicial custody after entering Jantar Mantar with the national flag on 13 October, a day after the area was denotified as an official protest site.


In response to the demonstration call, the New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) shut Central Park for Friday and Saturday citing administrative reasons. The police noted that while holding the tricolour is lawful, gathering crowds without permission breaks the rules. Prohibitory orders under Section 163 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) are currently active across Connaught Place and nearby routes.


Heated confrontation at Dipke’s home

A video from inside the house showed the 31-year-old leader, seated with a small national flag over his shoulders, questioning the police over allegations of instigation on social media. Dipke strongly pushed back against the charges written in the notice.


“Kya aarop laga diya hai aapne mere upar,” Dipke asked the officer seated opposite him. Questioning the basis of the police claims, he added, “Ye kya mazak laga rakha hai aap logon ne. Kya notice hai, ye notice hota hai? Jo maan main aaye woh likhe ja rahe ho aap log.” Challenging the police to back their claims, Dipke remarked, “Phansi pe chadha do na. Kya mazak hai ye,” asserting, “Video aap ek nahi dikha payenge.”


Traders urge protesters to spare commercial hub

A day earlier, Dipke told reporters that the campaign was inspired by Mahatma Gandhi and Dr BR Ambedkar, saying, “We believe in peace and non-violence. We are believers in Gandhi and non-violence. We are only asking for accountability.”


Meanwhile, local shop owners expressed frustration over recurring demonstrations. The New Delhi Traders Association urged organisers to move elsewhere, issuing an appeal, “Dear all political parties and protesters, we respect your right to protest and raise your voice, but CP is not your stage, it’s our workplace.” The association pointed out that traffic curbs and barricades over recent weeks have hurt footfall, hitting sales and disrupting livelihoods for daily-wage workers, vendors, and store staff.
