Cockroach Janta Party founder Abhijeet Dipke thanked Chief Justice of India (CJI) Surya Kant after Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation. "I'd like to thank CJI...If he hadn't called us cockroaches...this movement wouldn't have started," said Dipke. CJI has clarified that his "cockroach" remark was for lawyers who entered the profession using fake degrees, not India's youth.
