Mumbai: Cockroach Janta Party has outlined a programme for countrywide protests from Friday that would culminate in yet another agitation in Jantar Mantar. CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke on Thursday announced that CJP will carry out an agitation in Mumbai at Dadar's Shivaji Park grounds seeking CEC Gyanesh Kumar's resignation.

"Gyanesh Kumar is a traitor, he is not fit to be CEC, we will start an agitation from tomorrow and take it to the entire country... In a democracy people decide their government but here the government is deciding who the voters would be," said Dipke while speaking to the media.

The CJP founder said that if CEC won't resign, then 13 crore voters, who had been removed from electoral rolls, would come out on roads to protest.
