FROM SCHOOL THIK KARO TO ELECTION COMMISSION THIK KARO — 25 SEP 2026

What Happened

CJP NEWS & MOVEMENT TRACKER — 25 SEPTEMBER 2026 Following weeks of grassroots school inspections and tribal education audits, the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) has launched a new national campaign titled "Election Commission Thik Karo". On September 24, 2026, CJP leadership demanded the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar within 48 hours, citing reported disagreements within the Election Commission regarding the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. CJP announced three core demands: the resignation of the CEC, an immediate halt and review of SIR-related exclusions, and an independent review of electoral-roll decisions. Simultaneously, CJP's education campaigns documented new field reports: - Nandurbar, Maharashtra: Abhijeet Dipke reported infrastructure and drinking-water deficiencies across tribal ashram schools in Akkalkuwa taluka. - Nuh, Haryana: An 8-day audit across 24 government schools reported alleged drug-related material on several campuses. - Official Response: Election Commission officials stated that SIR decisions were unanimously approved by the full commission and described ECINET as a decentralized system.

Why It Matters

The transition from public education auditing to challenging electoral-roll governance marks a major expansion in CJP's institutional accountability focus, setting up a 48-hour deadline before proposed further demonstrations.
