The Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) on Wednesday extended support to the 'Save Votes–Save the Nation' rally called by INDIA bloc at Ramlila Maidan in New Delhi on November 1.
The decision to extend support was announced by CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke in a post on his official 'X' account.
"The Cockroach Janta Party extends its support to the INDIA Bloc’s November 1 rally. Nation above all!," the post read.

Invoking the principles of Dr B R Ambedkar, the architect of Indian constitution, the CJP wrote that a democracy can only succeed "when every citizen had an equal say in deciding the country's future".
Raising concerns regarding the validity of the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, the movement said that India is currently witnessing "growing fears of exclusion".
In a detailed pamphlet attached to the post, the CJP stated that the outfit will support "all organisations fighting for free and fair election in our country".
Announcing the rally, Congress leader Rahul Sandhi urged students, farmers, labourers, women, youth and traders to participate, alleging that names had been removed from voter lists and rules and laws had been violated.
“November 1 - Let's go to Delhi. Save the Vote - Save the Country Jan March and Mega Rally,” his post on 'X' read.
हमारा वोट चुराया जा रहा है और ये हम किसी हाल में चुपचाप नहीं सहेंगे।मतदाता सूचियों से नाम काटे गए। नियम-कानून तोड़े गए। और सवाल पूछने वालों पर लाठियां चलीं।अब जवाब देश देगा। 1 नवंबर - चलो दिल्ली।वोट बचाओ - देश बचाओ जन मार्च और महारैली।छात्र, किसान, मज़दूर, महिलाएं, नौजवान और व्यापारी - जिस-जिस को लोकतंत्र की फ़िक्र है, वो ज़रूर आए।वोट आपका है। लड़ाई भी आपकी है।📍 रामलीला मैदान, नई दिल्ली PS: BJP और उसके साथियों का दिल से धन्यवाद, जो इस कार्यक्रम का इतना ज़ोर-शोर से प्रचार कर रहे हैं और इसे ज़्यादा से ज़्यादा लोगों तक पहुंचा रहे हैं। बस अगले 7 दिन भी यही जोश और लगन बनाए रखिए!#ChaloDilli#RamlilaMarch
Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge also urged people across India to join the rally, accusing the Narendra Modi government of protecting Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar amid allegations of electoral irregularities.
