CJP Team Pushed Out During Rajasthan School Visit
A team from the Cockroach Janata Party visited a village school in Rajasthan.
The team wanted to check the school as part of its “School Thik Karo” campaign.
Villagers blocked the road and stopped the team from entering.
The two groups argued and pushed each other, according to reports.
CJP said stones were thrown, cars were damaged and some people were hurt or had torn clothes.
The villagers later protested outside the school and shouted against CJP.
The school building was considered unsafe, so classes were reportedly being held in a cattle enclosure.
CJP blamed people linked to the BJP, while villagers said the school could be repaired locally.
Villagers in Rampura Kanwarpura allegedly barricaded roads and stopped a CJP team from inspecting a government school.
A confrontation followed, with reports of pushing, shoving, stone-pelting, damaged vehicles and torn clothing.
CJP co-convenor Ashutosh Ranka accused BJP-linked people of organizing the obstruction and criticized police inaction.
Villagers later held a sit-in outside the school and said it could be repaired using local efforts and sanctioned funds.
The school building was declared unsafe, with classes reportedly taking place in a cattle enclosure; a local DSP said he was unaware of the incident.

Founder of the Cockroach Janta Party
“All levels of disgust were crossed today. For the past several years, the school at Rampura Kanwarpura has been running from a buffalo shed. But when we reached there for an inspection, we were openly assaulted, pelted with stones. Car windows were smashed, stones were rained down on the team. Clothes were torn. My clothes were also torn.”

“Their leader, Kamal Pradhan, engages in the work of encroaching on the land of poor people there. Children are being taught in a cowshed among buffaloes, and when attempts are made to stop this, the BJP is sending its goons. What a shameful situation.”
