GermanyIn New Delhi, Indian youth staged a protest against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his government, using humor and satire to challenge authority. The demonstrations followed the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, a key demand of the 'Cockroach Janta Party' (CJP) movement. Protesters adorned streets with satirical posters and graffiti mocking Modi and the government, while social media played a major role in organizing and amplifying the movement. The protests began after a minister derogatorily referred to unemployed youth as 'cockroaches,' prompting widespread outrage among Gen Z. Participants used memes, Instagram reels, and slogans like 'Buddy, you can't even make tea' to mock Modi’s past as a tea vendor. Despite tensions with police, including tear gas and injuries, the movement highlighted the growing influence of youth activism in India.
