The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) has issued a stern warning to the central government, threatening to reignite protests if prior commitments made to conclude demonstrations at Jantar Mantar are not fulfilled.

The CJP, an online group that has evolved into a pressure movement, accused the government of "vishwasghat," or betrayal, and of shattering the trust of the nation's youth. The party stated its intention to convene on August 24 to strategize its next steps.

We will not allow the Government to insult an entire generation by making promises to end a peaceful movement and then attempting to wriggle out of those very promises once the streets have emptied.
