Mary Millben and Abhijeet Dipke clash over CJP funding allegations

American singer Mary Millben and Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke have engaged in a social media dispute following Millben’s allegations that the CJP is receiving funding from US-based donors. Millben claimed these donors target conservative global leaders by radicalizing US-educated individuals and sending them back to their home countries to incite instability. She urged Indian youth to oppose these "disruptive forces."

Dipke responded by questioning the right of foreign nationals to interfere in India’s internal affairs, asserting that Indians are capable of resolving their own issues without outside intervention. Millben countered by stating that Prime Minister Narendra Modi does not require American support, citing his long-standing domestic political record.

The controversy arises amid ongoing CJP protests in India, which seek the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over alleged irregularities in electoral rolls. While the BJP has echoed Millben’s claims, alleging that foreign funds are being used to destabilize the country, Congress MP Pramod Tiwari dismissed the remarks as a "BJP trick" designed to suppress democratic movements.
