India TodayIndependentProgressiveFactual 90Objective 652 days ago Another BJP leader's daughter comes out in support of CJP stir. She explains whyA daughter of BJP leader Vikram Singh, Yashaswinee Raje Singh, has publicly supported the protests led by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) against the Indian government. During an interview with Al Jazeera, she criticized the new Education Minister, Pralhad Joshi, calling him a 'bleak joke,' and described the resignation of former Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan as more of a 'martyrdom' than an act of remorse. Yashaswinee emphasized that she maintains a clear separation from her father’s political activities, stating she is financially independent and avoids discussing politics with him. This follows similar actions by other BJP leaders’ daughters, including Archita Sachin Rahar, who celebrated Pradhan’s resignation online, and Dibisa Mahanta, who marched with CJP protesters. The CJP protests, which lasted 36 days and involved significant student participation, successfully achieved their main goal of securing Pradhan’s resignation over the NEET exam paper leak controversy.

'Close to 100 BJP MPs have criminal cases': CJP defends woman who 'abused' PM ModiA spokesperson for the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), Saurav Das, defended Ruchika Singh, a Noida woman arrested for allegedly making offensive remarks about Prime Minister Narendra Modi during a recent CJP protest. Das criticized the authorities for using the criminal justice system against Singh, arguing that such actions were disproportionate. He highlighted that nearly half of the Lok Sabha MPs have pending criminal cases, with almost 100 BJP MPs involved, suggesting that the police should prioritize investigating these cases rather than targeting young individuals.

The CJP continues to demand the withdrawal of all criminal cases against students and protesters involved in the ongoing agitation.

Scroll.inIndependentConservativeFactual 80Objective 60yesterday ‘We will kill, rape you’: Online mobs are targeting women protesters for ‘abusing’ ModiShradha Singh, a 23-year-old content creator and yoga instructor from Madhya Pradesh, became a target of online harassment after posting an Instagram reel during protests against question paper leaks in New Delhi. The seven-second video, which used a cleaning product ad's soundtrack to humorously reference the Rapid Action Force and herself, was misinterpreted as disrespectful to the armed forces.

Her car's license plate was tracked by BJP supporters, resulting in death and rape threats. Singh identified coordinated troll farm accounts and genuine users influenced by them.
